4.0 out of 5 stars
Evocative,
By A Customer
This review is from: Ladders To Fire: V1 In Nin'S Continuous Novel (Vol I) (Paperback)
Evocative, dreamlike portrayal of woman and soul. Much substance, deeply layered. Imagery is gritty, beautiful, real, and stylish simultaneously. Everything is described until you feel dreams are tanglible. Bless you Anais!!

This review is from: Ladders To Fire: V1 In Nin'S Continuous Novel (Vol I) (Paperback)
I have to say that I only started reading Anais Nin because of Henry Miller, but that probably can be said for most. After reading "Tropic of Cancer" about ten years ago I had to read Miller's muse, so I picked up Nin's "Delta of Venus" in a used book store and devoured it. This year after visiting the Henry Miller Library in Big Sur, CA. I read "Tropic of Capricorn" and had to keep up the tradition by reading this book. With that said... Nin is amazingly poetic in her verse and it makes me want to lock myself in the house and read the rest of the books in this "continuous novel". Every character leaps from the page and I feel like I have known their counterparts at one point in my life. Nin made each character a shattered part of herself or a part she wanted her self to be! Here style made me more and more introspective with the addition of each new character. I can not wait to read more!
