“The author found in Nin a kindred soul. Both women were poets. They became friends, two Pisces artists who agreed that style depends on vision and technique. In her Preface, Holt says this book is “neither adulation nor scholarly criticism, but an honest attempt to understand Anaïs Nin and her work”
Mary Anne Raphael in an Amazon review of the first edition of Rochelle Lynn Holt’s book: Anaïs Nin : An Understanding of her art.
Since this book now sells on Amazon for $121.00 the1997 book was re-published and re-edited in 2010.
The updated version was available through http://www.scars.tv but their ordering link for the book does not go directly to the on-line ordering for the book but to Lulu’s marketplace and so we have provided a direct link to ordering the book on Lulu as a courtesy and reprinted the scars.tv info below. Alas, although the initial ISBN number works and links to Amazon, this second edition’s ISBN number does not work.

And a thank you to Rochelle for sending on a copy of this updated version.The added chapter, Cafe From Inner Through Outer Space is a very helpful guide to all things Anaïs.
