Nearer the Moon by Anais Nin
Nearer the Moon from "A Journal of Love": Previously unpublished, Unexpurgated Diary, 1937-1939 by Anais Nin. 1996 Harcourt Brace, first edition, 396 pages. Nin was a French-born American essayist, author, and diarist. According to the Guardian: "In her lifetime, Nin was an oddity: for one thing, she was a woman who wrote explicitly about sex from a female point of view. Her work included frank portrayals of illegal abortions, extramarital affairs and incest, all of which Nin wrote about without judging her female characters." Included here are the years she is torn between fellow writer Henry Miller, as well as her husband and another lover.
Condition: VG
"Deprived of the opium of intensity I fell into the abyss."
