Mirages opens at the dawn of World War II, when Anaïs Nin fled Paris, where she lived for fifteen years with her husband, banker Hugh Guiler, and ends in 1947 when she meets the man who would be “the One,” the lover who would satisfy her insatiable hunger for connection. In the middle looms a period Nin describes as “hell,” during which she experiences a kind of erotic madness, a delirium that fuels her search for love. As a child suffering abandonment by her father, Anaïs wrote, “Close your eyes to the ugly things,” and, against a horrifying backdrop of war and death, Nin combats the world’s darkness with her own search for light. Mirages collects, for the first time, the story that was cut from all of Nin’s other published diaries, particularly volumes 3 and 4 of The Diary of Anaïs Nin, which cover the same time period. It is the long-awaited successor to the previous unexpurgated diaries Henry and June, Incest, Fire, and Nearer the Moon. Mirages answers the questions Nin readers have been asking for decades: What led to the demise of Nin’s love affair with Henry Miller? Just how troubled was her marriage to Hugh Guiler? What is the story behind Nin’s “children,” the effeminate young men she seemed to collect at will? Mirages is a deeply personal story of heartbreak, despair, desperation, carnage, and deep mourning, but it is also one of courage, persistence, evolution, and redemption that reaches beyond the personal to the universal.

Volume 8 of A Cafe in Space, the only current journal dedicated to the life and work of diarist and novelist Anais Nin, contains striking letters between Nin and Hugh Guiler shortly before her death, and between Rupert Pole and Guiler shortly after her death. The letters reveal a need for Nin to emotionally split from Guiler, her husband of 53 years, and how Guiler and Pole, with whom Nin was living, managed to work together promoting Nin's work after her death. They also clear up any misconceptions about whether Guiler knew about Pole in light of the great lengths to which Nin webt in order to keep him in the dark.  Also included in this issue are articles by scholars from around the world regarding Nin, her writing and sense of fashion, filmmaker Maya Deren, the movie Henry and June, as well as a look at Nin's "father-in-law," Reginald Pole, the renowned Shakespearean actor.An excerpt from Barbara Kraft's memoir Anais Nin: The Last Days gives us a look at Nin's final illness as told by an intimate friend.

Nin's importance as a feminist and visionary is finally revealed. Based on a new examination of long-buried letters, papers, and original manuscripts held at UCLA and found in Nin's Los Angeles home, Spy in the House of Anais Nin takes a penetrating look at Nin's incredible life and famous diary. Firmly placing Nin in her historical context as a feminist and visionary, this collection of essays lifts the lid on the origins of Nin's secrets and lies, gives voice to her husband via an unpublished letter, reveals Nin's real politics, and discloses the truth of Gore Vidal’s feelings for Nin via an unearthed love letter from Vidal to Nin. With this book, author Kim Krizan serves as the ultimate spy, conducting deep background on Anais Nin -- the notorious, rule-shattering diarist who was the self-proclaimed “spy in the house of love.”
