The Diary of a Girl in France in 1821
Author: Mary Browne
Publisher: Good Press
ISBN:
Category : Travel
Languages : en
Pages : 144
Book Description
This work gives an entry into the mind of a bright 13-year-old English girl during the first half of the 19th century. She was an enthusiastic naturalist and observer of nature during a time when such amusements were unusual. Mary entertained the readers with her lengthy isolated wanders around her beautiful home. She loved flowers, and she planted and tended with her own loving care fragrant flowers like rose de Meaux, clove pinks, and gillyflowers. Mary was content in her own company. The circle around her didn't understand her because she was shy and strangely indifferent to appearance and worldly advantages. The diary is full of vivid observations of the world around her. This diary is considered a picture poem, painted beautifully and with innocence. It shows little Mary's accuracy of observation and her attention to detail.

Incest
Author: Anaïs Nin
Publisher: HMH
ISBN: 0547540787
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 443
Book Description
The trailblazing memoirist and author of Henry & June recounts her relationships with Henry Miller and others—including her own father. Anaïs Nin wrote in her uncensored diaries like they were a broad-minded confidante with whom she shared the liberating psychosexual dramas of her life. In this continuation of her notorious Henry & June, she recounts a particularly turbulent period between 1932 and 1934, and the men who dominated it: her protective husband, her therapist, and the poet Antonin Artaud. However, most consuming of all is novelist Henry Miller—a man whose genius, said Anaïs, was so demonic it could drive people insane. Here too, recounted in extraordinary detail, is the sexual affair she had with her father. At once loving, exciting, and vengeful, it was the ultimate social transgression for which Anaïs would eventually seek absolution from her analysts. “Before Lena Dunham there was Anaïs Nin. Like Dunham, she’s been accused of narcissism, sociopathy, and sexual perversion time and again. Yet even that comparison undercuts the strangeness and bravery of her work, for Nin was the first of her kind. And, like all truly unique talents, she was worshipped by some, hated by many, and misunderstood by most . . . A woman who’d spent decades on the bleeding edge of American intellectual life, a woman who had been a respected colleague of male writers who pushed the boundaries of acceptable sex writing. Like many great . . . experimentalists, she wrote for a world that did not yet exist, and so helped to bring it into being.” —The Guardian Includes an introduction by Rupert Pole
