(Book)

"The [never before published] text is taken from journals thirty-two through thirty-six, titled 'June, ' 'The possessed, ' 'Henry.' 'Apotheosis and downfall, ' and 'Journal of a possessed, ' written from October 1931 to October 1932. ... Material that appeared in the Diary of Anaïs Nin, 1931-1934, has been deleted, for the most part"--Page vii.

Overview: Drawn from the original, uncensored journals of Anais Nin, Henry and June is an intimate account of a woman's sexual awakening. It covers a single momentous year - from late 1931 to the end of 1932 - during Nin's life in Paris, when she met Henry Miller and his wife, June. She fell in love with June's beauty and Henry's writing and, soon after June's departure for New York, began a fiery affair with Henry, which liberated her sexually and morally but undermined her marriage and led her into psychoanalysis. One question dominated her thoughts: what would happen when June returned to Paris? That event took place in October 1932, leaving Nin trapped between two loves - Henry and June. Drawn from the original, uncensored journals of Anais Nin, this is an intimate account of a woman's sexual awakening.
