Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The Four-Chambered Heart, Anaïs Nin's 1950 novel, recounts the real-life affair she conducted with café guitarist Gonzalo Moré in 1936. Nin and Moré rented a house-boat on the Seine, and under the pervading influence of the boat's watchman and Moré's wife Helba, developed a relationship. Moré; named the boat Nanankepichu, meaning 'not really a home.' In the novel, which Nin drew from her experiences on the boat, the characters are clearly based. Djuna is an embodiment of Nin herself.

Often, Nin employs a stream of consciousness, especially in her flowing analyses of love, life and music, which continues the water image. Anaïs Nin's writing is typically exquisite in its detail and texture. She describes Paris: its 'black lacquered cobblestones' and 'silver filigree trees.' The 'humid scarfs of fog' on the river, and 'the sharp incense of roasted chestnuts' reveal their source through their reality: Nin's personal experience. …
