Book Reviews of Henry and June: From "A Journal of Love" -The Unexpurgated Diary of Anais Nin (1931-1932)
Book Review: moderately interesting, for a diary
Summary: 3 Stars
This is Anais Nin's diary of her ambivalent love affair with the writer Henry Miller. She describes the turmoil of her awakening to the deficiencies of her husband Hugo, and throughout she documents her progress with her therapist Allendy.
Nin is pulled between the passion and selfishness of Henry, to which she is erotically attracted, only to find the opposite qualities in Hugo. Nin's poeticism portrays her attraction to the darker sides of human nature, as well as her own capacity to plumb these darker qualities in herself.
Although this is an interesting account of Nin's love life at a time when such affairs were unusual, this is ultimately a personal diary and as such, becomes a little tedious at times.
