Paris, Siana Editions, 1936. 4°. 89 Seiten, 2 Bl. OUmschlag. Erste Ausgabe. - Anais Nins erster Roman - ein ausgedehntes Prosa-Gedicht - wurde mit Unterstützung von Michael Fraenkel und Alfred Perles auf ihrer eigenen Presse gedruckt. - Eins von nur 249 numerierten Exemplaren. Vorliegendes Buch with handwritten dedication to /mit Widmung an die in Paris lebende amerikanischen Autorin Kay Boyle: "To Kay Boyle, "the fear of madmen will burn down the walls of our secret house and send us out into the world." Anais Nin, Paris 1937." Beide Frauen waren Schlüsselfiguren der Literatur- und Kunstszene, die in den 30er Jahren so viele Amerikaner nach Paris zog. - An den Rändern etwas angedunkelt, einige kleine Fleckchen auf dem Umschlag (hinten), sonst sehr schönes Exemplar. - One of 249 numbered copies of the true first edition of Nin's second book, first novel, signed by the author. A surreal novel looseley based on Nin's ménage à trois with Henry and June Miller and her incestous relationship with her father. Jack Kahane, publisher of the Obelisk Press - which had published Miller's "Tropic of Cancer" two years earlier - turned down the book, and Nin set up her own inprint, Siana Editions (Anais backward!), with the help of Miller, Michael Fraenkel and Alfred Perlès. Although the limitation page indicates 249 copies signed by the author, years after the publication Nin sold the last hundered copies, unsigned, to American underground publisher Sam Abramson, meaning that fewer than 150 copies of the edition were numbered and signed by Nin. A nice, near fine copy with near fine d/j of this large, fragile association copy we have ever seen. Sprache: Englisch. *** Bitte kontaktieren Sie uns immer BEVOR Sie bestellen!

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Antiquariat CoBrA, Oberrohrbach, Austria, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
