  Edited quotes, "This candid volume from the renowned diarist covers her years of struggle, and eventual triumph, as an author in America during WWII

  'Transcending mere self-revelation, the diary examines human personality with a depth and understanding seldom surpassed since Proust, dream and 

  fact are balanced and in their joining lie the elements of masterpiece.  Just one page of Nin’s extraordinary diaries contains more sex, melodrama, fantasies,

  confessions, and observations than most novels, and reflects much about the human psyche we strive to repress. - Booklist."
