Publicity
Anaïs Nin is a complex and ambiguous character, whose reputation remains sulphurous.
Famous for her diaries, her erotic stories, among the first written by a woman from the end of the 30s, her multiple connections, in particular with the writer Henry Miller.
But how did the young American manage to find her way, to impose herself, to give up the morals of her Protestant upbringing in order to let herself go to follow her instincts?
Between libertinism, bisexuality, incest agreed with a father who abused her as a child, immersed in sexuality, in dreams, nightmares and fantasies of Anaïs NIN, through a graphic novel with a vaporous, colorful and elegant line.
