House of Incest — (1958)

By Anaïs Nin

"House of Incest is a strange and challenging work that demands the full attention of the reader. It is not so much a story of people (although it certainly is that) as it is a visit into the hellish nightmare of the narrator's experience from which she emerges satisfactorily. But, however one approaches the work, House of Incest is Nin's best work of fiction and one that contains most of her basic themes, images and patterns that she would use in her later work."

Benjamin Franklin and Duane Schneider

Anaïs Nin is one of the most unique literary figures of this century. As a novelist she has been distinctly catalytic, and her life-long diary resembles no other in the history of letters. From a small circle of admirers her audience has been transformed in recent years to a large following of international proportions. Her books have been published in a dozen languages, and she is in constant demand as a lecturer. In 1973 Anaïs Nin received the honorary degree of Doctor of Fine Arts from the Philadelphia College of Art, and in 1974 she was elected to the National Institute of Arts and Letters.
