Anais Nin Character Dictionary and Index to Diary Excerpts

A new updated and expanded edition of the definitive guide to Anais Nin's fictional characters, beginning with House of Incest (1936) through Nin's last short stories in the 1970s--their names, descriptions and sources--and an index citing all of Nin's diary passages which appear in past and current publications other than her published diaries. A new appendix explores the real-life inspirations for Nin's major characters, including Henry Miller, June Mansfield, Gonzalo More and Louise de Vilmorin.
