Henry and June: From a Journal of Love: The Unexpurgated Diary (1931-1932) of Anais Nin
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.

Praise for this book
"Henry and June is in essence a record of Nin's erotic awakening...At once effusive and measured, lyrical and taut, this slim volume is the record of a woman struggling for clarity in the dialogue with herself."--The New York Times Book Review "Tightly drawn and full of passion."--The Cleveland Plain Dealer "Nin's own sense of her feminine nature splendidly revealed."--Booklist --
