Talk:Nin, Anais

Quoting this misogynistic, ridiculously bias and unprofessional article about Anais Nin here by astrodatabank:

"Nin fancied herself an artist, when, in fact, she was a minor writer and a very, very sensitive bore."

"In her first period of "erotic madness," which she called "a search for the father," she pitted one man against another. In 1933 after a separation of nearly 20 years, she met and seduced her own father who was then 54."

"She kept both real and false diaries, editing and rewriting them throughout her life in a never-ending recreation of self. Some say her writing reveals a portrait of monstrous egotism and selfishness, horrifying in its callous indifference. "

"Her first book, published when she was 27, was about D.H. Lawrence with whom she agreed that lies were essential because most people could not stomach the naked truth. She would brag about lying 'bravely, ironically, dually, triply.'"

"Nin’s illness became symptomatic in 1969: "The cancer began in the vagina."

It is obvious how you view women here. I find this very offensive.
