Under a Glass Bell
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Under a Glass Bell, originally published in 1944, was the first book by Anais Nin to gain attention from the literary establishment. It was published by Anais Nin's own printing press, which she named Gemor Press (a word play on the name of her employee and lover Gonzalo Moré). Edmund Wilson favorably reviewed Under a Glass Bell in The New Yorker magazine.
The book is a collection of short stories, with topics ranging from diary keeping ("The Labyrinth"), to life in Paris ("Houseboat"), to a late-term abortion ("The Birth").
Many critics and biographers, such as Deirdre Bair, claim that Under a Glass Bell is Anais Nin's finest work.
