Anais Nin, Fictionality and Femininity - Playing a Thousand Roles (Hardcover)

Helen Tookey examines the work of Anaïs Nin (1903-77) - and the different versions of Nin herself, as woman, writer, and iconic figure - through the lens of cultural and historical contexts. She focuses particularly on questions of identity and femininity, exploring how the self, for Nin, is constructed through narratives and performances of various kinds, and shedding light on key issues and conflicts within feminist thinking since the 1970s, particularly questions of identity, femininity, and psychoanalysis.
