Under a Glass Bell — (1970)

By Anaïs Nin

Under a Glass Bell is one of Nin's finest collections of stories. First published in 1944, it attracted the attention of Edmond Wilson, who reviewed the collection in The New Yorker. It was in these stories that Nin's artistic and emotional vision took shape. This edition includes a highly informative and insightful foreword by Gunther Stuhlmann that places the collection in its historical context as well as illuminates the sequence of events and persons recorded in the diary that served as its inspiration.

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.
