Donated by B, as spoken about in Seinfeld!
From Amazon: Synopsis
The controversial, erotic and hilarious companion to the legendary Tropic of Cancer, in a smart new Harper Perennial Modern Classics edition. A riotous and explosive mixture of joys and frustrations, Tropic of Capricorn chronicles Miller's early life in New York, from his repressive Brooklyn childhood spent amongst 'a galaxy of screwballs' to frantic, hilarious years of dead-end jobs and innumerable erotic adventures. Irreverent and ironic, Tropic of Capricorn is both a comic portrait of the irrepressible Miller himself and a scathing attack on respectable America, the very foundations of which he hoped to shatter. The publication of Tropic of Capricorn and its sister-volume Tropic of Cancer in Paris in the 1930s was hailed by Samuel Beckett as 'a momentous event in the history of modern writing'. The books were subsequently banned in the UK and the USA for nearly thirty years.

This book has an interesting handwritten message in the front couple of pages of the book from Bruce, who mentions his film and Kely. It is dated 1988 and I am guessing (with Google's help) it is Bruce and Kely Lyons who were both involved with The Navigator film!? [B and husband used to live in NZ where some of the movie was filmed.]
