A bridge between the early life of Nin and the first volume of her Diary.

Journal d'une Jeune Mariée 1923-1927

In Delta of Venus Anaïs Nin penned a lush, magical world where the characters of her imagination possess the most universal of desires and exceptional of talents. Among these provocative stories, a Hungarian adventurer seduces wealthy women then vanishes with their money; a veiled woman selects strangers from a chic restaurant for private trysts; and a Parisian hatmaker named Mathilde leaves her husband for the opium dens of Peru. Delta of Venus is an extraordinarily rich and exotic collection from the master of erotic writing.

Vénus Érotica 2

Djuna è una giovane danzatrice, che vede nella danza l’unica possibilità di riscatto da un’infanzia difficile trascorsa in un orfanotrofio. Ottenuta una borsa di studio per una prestigiosa scuola di ballo di Parigi, inizia a frequentare i caffè di Montmartre, stringendo amicizia con giovani artisti. Con alcuni di loro intreccia storie d’amore e tra questi, due saranno particolarmente importanti: Michael, un omosessuale, e Paul, un adolescente segnato dall’educazione severa e autoritaria dei genitori al quale Djuna insegna il senso profondo della libertà.L’intreccio di amore carnale e passione per la danza costituisce una tramatura sottile e continua che affascina il lettore, rendendo questo romanzo finora inedito in Italia, uno dei più riusciti di Anaïs Nin per ricchezza di immagini e costruzione narrativa.

Les enfants de l'Albatros

Taken from the original, uncensored journals of Anaïs Nin, Henry and June spans a single year in Nin's life when she discovers love and torment in one insatiable couple. From late 1931 to the end of 1932, Nin falls in love with Henry Miller's writing and his wife June's striking beauty. When June leaves Paris for New York, Henry and Anaïs begin a fiery affair that liberates her sexually and morally, but also undermines her marriage and eventually leads her into psychoanalysis. As she grapples with her own conscience, a single question dominates her thoughts: What will happen when June returns to Paris? An intimate account of one woman's sexual awakening, Henry and June exposes the pain and pleasure felt by a single person trapped between two loves.
