Henry Miller's book “Tropic of Cancer” at one time literally exploded the public morality of both hemispheres of the Earth. The hero of the book, in which the personality of the author himself was clearly visible, “gave out” such a series of erotic revelations, and even presented in such a rich language, that more than one reader thought about the fullness of his sexual existence... Years passed. And fans of the writer’s work recognized the new Miller - a thoughtful, almost chaste, deep philosopher. Of course, in his memoirs he did not ignore his “troubled life” in Paris, but he also talked about how he studied with great French writers and artists, and expressed his thoughts about world literature and art. But right there, nearby - witty conversations devoid of “forbidden topics” with new friends: tramps, drug addicts, drunkards, prostitutes... Henry Miller calls the Colossus of Maroussia the Greek writer and publisher Georgos Katsimbalis, who was born and lived in the small town of Neon Amaroussion, or just Maroussi. A translator of the poetry of Greek poets into English, publisher of the magazine New Literature, and head of an influential group of literary figures known as the Generation of the 1930s, Katsimbalis was a colorful figure on the cultural scene of pre- and post-war Greece. He found a worthy replacement for writing, preferring the “art of life” to the art of literature, and became the living embodiment of the spirit of Hellenism, which was being revived in the country in the 1940s.
