The Unexpurgated Diaries of Anaïs Nin

A friend introduced me to Anaïs Nin, opening my world up to a womanhood that is complex, irrisistable, cunning, insightful and erotic. It opened my eyes: female complexity is of all time, and not something feminism discovered in the 70's. Why this should surprise me?!

The Unexpurgated Diaries were published by Nin's last husband Rupert Pole, after Hugh Parker Guiler (her first husband) died, as she didn't want to hurt him.
