About “The Rosy Crucifixion”
The Rosy Crucifixion is a trilogy by Henry Miller, consisting of Sexus, Plexus, and Nexus. It is a fictionalized account of Miller's six-year period in Brooklyn, where he falls for his second wife, June, and attempts to establish himself as a writer. The trilogy ends with Miller's departure for Paris in 1928. The title is taken from a line in Tropic of Capricorn, where Miller refers to his experiences as "rosy crucifixions," describing them as pseudo-tragedies meant to keep the fires of hell burning for those who are forgotten.
