Instead, she turned to fiction, where her stories and novels became artistic “distillations” of her secret diaries. A Spy in the House of Love, whose heroine Sabina is deeply divided between her drive for artistic and sexual expression and social restrictions and self-created inhibitions, echoes Nin’s personal struggle with sex, love, and emotional fragmentation. Written when Nin’s own life was taut with conflicting loyalties, her protagonist Sabina repeatedly asks herself, can one idulge one’s sensual restlessness, the fantasies, the relentless need for adventure without devastating consequences?Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 216mmItem Length: 140mmAuthor: Anaïs NinContributor: Anita Jarczok (Introduction by)Genre: Literary CriticismISBN-10: 0804011486Topic: Gender Sex & Relationships, Fiction, Society & CultureRelease Year: 2013 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
