In The Novel of the Future, Anais Nin explores the act of
creation-in film, art, and dance as well as literature-to chart a
new direction for the young artist struggling against what she
perceived as the sterility, formlessness, and spiritual bankruptcy
afflicting much of mid-twentieth-century fiction. Nin offers,
instead, an argument for and synthesis of the poetic novel and
discusses her own efforts in this genre as well as its influence on
the development of such writers as D. H. Lawrence, Henry Miller,
Lawrence Durrell, Marguerite Young, and Djuna Barnes. In chapters
devoted to the pursuit of the hidden self, the genesis of fiction,
and the relationship between the diary and fiction, she addresses
the materials, techniques, and nourishment of the arts, and the
functions of art itself. Originally published in 1968, The Novel of
the Future remains a classic among both creative writers and
literary scholars. This new Swallow Press edition includes an
introduction by Nin biographer Deirdre Bair.
