Softcover bound in black white & orange pictorial wrappers. The binding is rubbed with creasing to the rear cover & spine & to the bottom corner of the front cover. The left edge of the titling on the cover is slightly faded. xviii & 270 pages. The fore-edge is lightly soiled. Good.</p><p>Later printing.</p><p>Edited with an introduction by Evelyn J. Hinz.</p><p>Inscribed to artist Renate Druks on the half-title by Anais Nin's West Coast husband and literary executor Rupert Pole. Pole writes: "For Renate / in Memoriam Jan. 14 1977 / Rupert". Pole's inscription is dated the date that Nin died. He adds "Too Much" beneath the title "A Woman Speaks" followed by Aanais Nin's name.</p><p>Rupert Pole 1919-2006 was a 28 year old musician and actor when he met the 44 year old Anais Nin in 1947 after the Broadway run of "The Duchess of Malfi". Pole earned a degree in forestry and after joining the Forest Service moved to live with Anais Nin in a rustic cabin in the Sierra Madre. Pole was under the impression that Nin had divorced her first husband Hugh Parker Guilder when they were married in Arizona by a justice of the peace. For 11 years Anais Nin kept secret from Pole that she was still married to Guilder but concerned about legal & financial entanglements the couple annulled their marriage. Though she remained married to Guilder Nin spent her remaining years with Pole in a small house he had built in Los Angeles' Silver Lake neighborhood. The house was designed by Pole's half brother Frank Lloyd Wright's grandson Eric Lloyd Wright. Following Nin's death in 1977 Pole became literary executor of her estate responsible for supervising preparations of posthumous editions of her work. In that capacity he restored erotic content that had been toned down in earlier editions.</p><p>The recipient Viennese-born artist Renate Druks 1921-2007 was one of Anais Nin's closest friends. Renate was first introduced to Anais Nin by their mutual friend Paul Mathiesen. Druks and Mathiesen came up with the idea of the "Come as Your Madness" masquerade party to which Nin showed up in a skin-colored leotard with a birdcage encasing her head from which she drew out ticker-tape upon which she'd penned lines from her books. Kenneth Anger in attendance was inspired by the event to create his film "Inauguration of the Pleasuredome" which featured scenes with Nin Druks and Mathiessen. Anais Nin and Renate Druks remained close friends until Nin's death and the character of Renate in Nin's final novel "Collages" is based on her friend. Renate Druks held her first solo exhibition of her paintings at the Lane Galleries in 1957. Her Malibu home later became known as a salon for the avant garde which was often visited by the likes of Kenneth Anger Don Bachardy Christopher Isherwood James Bridges Henry MillerVirgil Thompson and Anais Nin among others. In her diaries Anais Nin wrote "Renate's gift is a heightened mood which communicates itself to others. She created in a state of natural intoxication".</p> Chicago, IL: The Swallow Press Inc., (1976). paperback

197272081Chicago 1972. Chicago: 1972. Period reel-to-reel audio recording preserved in an Ohio State University box with manuscript titles on the rear panel. Digitized in early 2020 into wav recordings which are provided on a USB key. The recording is 28 minutes 37 seconds in length. Nin 1903-77 the French-born diarist and passionate eroticist is interviewed by Robert Cromie of the Chicago Tribune for the PBS television program Book Beat. In the course of their wide-ranging conversation which was recorded shortly after the publication of The Diary of Anais Nin Volume Four 1944-1947 1971 she discusses her literary approach: "it's played all kind of the roles the Diary you know it was the story of growth of a woman it was also a notebook and many of the characters in the novels I would start taking from reality from the Diary and then of course they go through a transformation which fiction always does and they will become composites. So there will be two people in one portrait and they change but nevertheless the base of it was in truth in the truth of the Diary and you can find similarities." Nin also speaks to her complicated relationships with writer Gore Vidal and filmmaker Maya Deren among others and the publication of Under a Glass Bell 1944 by her own printing Press which she named Gemor Press. When asked about Henry Miller's bohemian lifestyle she recalls "he was very generous with everything with his ideas with his stories with his life . he's generous to other writers too which is something that we kept from the Paris days and we never understood when we came to New York the absence of fraternity. But then of course the New York scene was different. The French writer never made any money. There was something rather uncommercial about being a writer and we were always helping each other and inspiring each other and encouraging each other and I miss that. Henry continued to encourage writers and I did too. Somebody said the history of art is the history of friendship. Should be." She also touches on a number of topical issues musing on the future of the Diary and sharing her thoughts on feminism: "There's one aspect I'm very much involved in with the creativity of the woman the liberation of the woman. There's an aspect which is very militant which I'm not involved with and you know there are many factions as you know it's already divided into many factions. I'm interested in showing the writing of women their capacities inspiring them and the Diaries of course have meant a great deal to women because it's unusual to have the story of a woman's growth. We never had a record of that and I was always interested in the growth of plants I would watch plants grow. I think I love to see the growth of human beings and I found the only one I could really record scientifically completely was my own and I think this became the story of growth for other women: examining the conflicts and the obstacles and watching day by day how you could expand without damaging others how could you grow without being destructive and all the problems that a woman has. unknown

"Nin was a friend and in some cases lover of many leading literary figures including Henry Miller John Steinbeck Antonin Artaud Edmund Wilson Gore Vidal James Agee James Leo Herlihy and Lawrence Durrell. Her passionate love affair and friendship with Miller strongly influenced her both sexually and as an author. Nin wrote about her infatuation with the Surrealist artist Bridget Bate Tichenor in her diaries. Claims that Nin was bisexual were given added circulation by the Philip Kaufman film Henry & June about Henry Miller and his second wife June Miller. The first unexpurgated portion of Nin's journal to be published Henry and June makes it clear that Nin was stirred by June to the point of saying paraphrasing "I have become June" though it is unclear whether she consummated her feelings for her sexually. To both Anaïs and Henry June was a femme fataleirresistible cunning erotic. Nin gave June money jewelry clothes often leaving herself broke." from Wikipedia . E. P. Dutton & Company hardcover
