The five novels Anais Nin called her "roman fleuve" are chronologically collected in Cities of the Interior: Ladders to Fire, Children of the Albatross, The Four-Chambered Heart, A Spy in the House of Love, and Seduction of the Minotaur. This new authoritative edition contains and introduction by Anais Nin, character descriptions, publishing history, and an author's chronology.
Written primarily in the 1940s and 1950s, these novels were reflections and extensions of what she could not share with the public: her secret diaries, which were filled with the sort of exploits, should her husband have read them, that would have destroyed her marriage. Using spare but powerful prose, Nin reveals a psychological truth about women and relationships that goes beyond the personal and into the universal, providing a "mirror" in which readers can see clearly see aspects of their own selves.

Editorial ReviewsReview“A prose/poetry dream; a lyrical celebration of the inner life and the images it evokes.”—Daniel Stern
“Beautiful, rare novels.”—Karl Shapiro
”Real and unmistakable genius.”—Rebecca West
“She wishes to immerse readers in that flow of sensibility and reflection from which human beings distill the significance of what they do and suffer.”—New York Times
“She explores relationships on a level to which few contemporary novelists penetrate.”—The AtlanticAbout the Author

Anaïs Nin (1903–1977) is an iconic literary figure and one of the most notable experimental writers of the twentieth century. As one of the first women to explore female erotica, Nin revealed the inner desires of her characters in a way that made her works a touchstone for later feminist writers.
