Review
Passionate, sexual and shocking --Cosmopolitan
Rarely does the literature of the 20th century reflect one of the great and transcending experiences: the emancipation of women. Simon de Beauvoir and Mary McCarthy dealt with the issue ... Anais Nin eclipses both of them. --Los Angeles Times
A remarkable psychological and literary talent. --Chicago Tribune
About the Author
ANAÏS NIN was born in Paris in 1903 and moved to the USA at the age of eleven. She returned to Paris a decade later, by then married to Hugh Guiler, and studied psychoanalysis under Otto Rank. It was during this period that she started to write, and her first book, D.H. Lawrence: An Unprofessional Study, was published in 1932. She went on to write stories and a series of autobiographical novels (including Collages, A Spy in the House of Love and Under a Glass Bell) as well as her celebrated volumes of erotica, including Delta of Venus and Little Birds. Perhaps best known for her journals, which were published by Peter Owen and established her reputation, her personal life and loves have attracted considerable attention, partly through her association with Henry Miller and his wife, as documented in her 1931–32 diary, published as A Journal of Love, but also because for over a decade she was married to a second man, Rupert Pole, while remaining married to Guiler. Neither of whom found out until after her death in 1977.

Condition: Bueno. : Este libro presenta la parte anteriormente censurada de los diarios de Anaïs Nin, abarcando los años cruciales de 1932 a 1934. En esta obra, Nin explora con una honestidad brutal y sin precedentes su vida amorosa y sexual, detallando sus complejas relaciones con figuras como Henry Miller, Antonin Artaud y, de manera más impactante, el reencuentro y la relación con su propio padre.A través de una prosa introspectiva y psicológica, la autora busca la liberación emocional y la salvación personal mediante el acto de escribir. Esta edición íntegra revela a una mujer que desafió las convenciones de su época para vivir sus deseos con la misma libertad que históricamente se les permitía a los hombres, ofreciendo un retrato misterioso y fascinante de una de las figuras literarias más icónicas del siglo XX.
