The first part of the diary, which is called \"The Trapeze Life,\" details Nin's complicated efforts to keep each husband unaware of the other as she jetted between them, a process she likened to a bicoastal \"trapeze.\" At the same time, few publishers were interested in her feminine and introspective fiction, and she considered herself a failed writer. However, she was keeping a diary she had begun at age eleven, and she began to realize that the diary itself was her most important work-but she wondered how she could publish it when it included numerous lovers, incest, and abortion without harming those she loved, which is the subject of the second portion of this volume, called \"Others.\" \u003ci\u003eThe Diary of Others\u003c\/i\u003e ends with the publication of the first volume of \u003ci\u003eThe Diary of Anaïs Nin\u003c\/i\u003e, which propelled Nin to critical and cultural fame at the age of sixty-three.\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 404\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.9 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 14, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51783717519648,"sku":"9781735745930","price":29.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/6c7ba65b61c12669a57afdc487fb68d3.webp?v=1780593128","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/the-diary-of-others-the-unexpurgated-diary-of-anais-nin-1955-1966-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
