NIN IN�DITA La mejor introducci�n a la obra de una autora admirada por lectores y escritores de ayer y de hoy: diecis�is relatos apasionantes �Antes de Lena Dunham, estuvo Ana�s Nin.� Sady Doyle, The Guardian �Mujer loca y sabia. [...] Esa literatura marginal que cada d�a me parece m�s bella.� Julio Cort�zar Estoy cansada de buscar una filosof�a que concuerde conmigo y con mi mundo, quiero buscar un mundo que concuerde conmigo y con mi filosof�a. Escritos cuando ten�a unos veinticinco a�os y viv�a en Francia con su marido, el poeta y banquero norteamericano Hugh Parker Guiler, estos diecis�is relatos in�ditos en castellano sorprenden por su madurez y frescura, a la vez que muestran ya los dos elementos que luego se afianzar�an en su obra --la iron�a y el feminismo-- y tambi�n sus obsesiones --el deseo femenino, la sexualidad, el adulterio, la belleza y el retrato de una masculinidad tan deslumbradora como t�xica--. Algunas de estas historias est�n protagonizadas por claros alter ego de Nin; otras, por apasionadas bailarinas de flamenco, misteriosos extranjeros, m�sicos... Poco despu�s de escribir estos cuentos, Nin conocer� a Henry Miller, que dir�a de ella: �Cuando trato de imaginar de qui�n es deudor tu estilo, me siento frustrado, no recuerdo a nadie con el que tengas el m�s ligero parecido. Me recuerdas �nicamente a ti misma�. Melanc�licos y punzantes, revelan ya a una gran autora que hizo saltar por los aires las convenciones literarias y sociales de su �poca. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION (Never Before Published Ana�s Nin) The best introduction to the work of an author admired by readers and writers of yesteryear and today: sixteen exciting and passionate stories. "Crazy and wise woman. [...] That marginal type of literature that every day seems more beautiful to me." -- Julio Cortazar "I'm tired of looking for a philosophy of life that agrees with me and with my world, I want to find a world that agrees with me and with my philosophy of life." Written when she was about twenty-five years old and living in France with her husband, American poet and banker Hugh Parker Guiler, these sixteen stories, never before published in Spanish, amaze by their maturity and freshness, while at the same time starting to display the two elements that would later take hold of her work --irony and feminism-- and also her obsessions: female desire, sexuality, adultery, beauty, and the portrayal of a masculinity as dazzling as it is toxic. Some of these stories clearly have as protagonists some of Nin's alter egos; while others have passionate flamenco dancers, mysterious foreigners, musicians ... Shortly after writing these stories, Nin would meet Henry Miller, who said this about her: "When I try to imagine who you owe credit to for your unique style, I get frustrated, I can't think of anyone with whom you have the slightest resemblance. You only remind me of yourself." Melancholic and intense, these stories reveal a great author who blew up the literary and social standards of her time. "Before Lena Dunham, there was Ana�s Nin." --Sady Doyle, The Guardian
