The Correspondence of Anaïs Nin


The following is a catalogue of the published correspondence of Anaïs Nin as it appeared mostly in the two journals Anais: An International Journal and A Cafe in Space: The Anaïs Nin Literary Journal.  Unpublished letters in private hands that are still auctioned from time to time are beyond the scope and purpose of the present and are not included.  Letters published in earlier newsletters devoted to Nin such as Under the Sign of Pisces: Anaïs Nin & Her Circle and Seahorse: The Anais Nin/Henry Miller Journal are also not included here as they are not all available in the UK at the time of writing.  Also, I have only been able to consult the first edition of Anais Nin: A Bibliography by Benjamin Franklin V (Kent State University Press, 1973), not the Annotated Secondary Bibliography (Taylor & Francis, 1990).  These can be added in due course when it is possible.  The 1985/86 Rupert Pole - John Ferrone correspondence was published in Cafe 4 (2007) entitled 'The Making of Henry & June, the Book'.

Correspondence published in volumes of The Diary of Anaïs Nin and in the unexpurgated Diary is not indicated here.  The correspondence published in book form is:
