Ladders to Fire, Children of the Albatross, The Four-Chambered Heart, A Spy in the House of Love, Seduction of the Minotaur. Haunting and hypnotic, these five novels by Anaïs Nin began in 1946 to appear in quiet succession.
Anaïs Nin (1903–1977) is an iconic literary figure and one of the most notable experimental writers of the twentieth century. As one of the first women to explore female erotica, Nin revealed the inner desires of her characters in a way that made her works a touchstone for later feminist writers. Swallow Press is the premier US publisher of books by and about Nin.
"A prose/poetry dream; a lyrical celebration of the inner life and the images it evokes." "Beautiful, rare novels." "Real and unmistakable genius." "She explores relationships on a level to which few contemporary novelists penetrate." "She wishes to immerse readers in that flow of sensibility and reflection from which human beings distill the significance of what they do and suffer."
