    <body><![CDATA[Anaïs Nin crafts stunning (and self-destructive?) descriptions of the many insecurities and anxieties of being a woman. This book, although sometimes a bit trite, completely floored me. I'm resonating in her language, almost in disbelief at having familiar issues so beautifully and boldy presented....<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/18937064">more...</a>]]></body>

She is married to dependable but unexciting Alan, he adores her, she still loves him but it is not enough so she has a string of affairs.

    <body><![CDATA[As always, Anais Nin's writing is dreamy and closer to poetry than prose. If you've read Henry And June previous to this it will be obvious as to the inspiration for the character of Sabina. Though that is vaguely unimportant to the reading. Just interesting for Anais fans.<br/>Some of the metaphor...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/72609211">more...</a>]]></body>
