Sexus is the first volume of the scandalous trilogy The Rosy Crucifixion, Henry Miller''s major life work

Henry Miller called the end of his life in America and the start of a new, bohemian existence in 1930s Paris his ''rosy crucifixion''. His searing fictionalized autobiography of this time of liberation was banned for nearly twenty years.
