LENDING A HAND: 1920s Erotica

Product Information

In lithe, sensuous colored pencils, this international prize-winning, impressionistic graphic biography traces the life, the affairs, and the artistic process of Anais Nin, one of the best-known authors of women’s erotica in the 1920s and ‘30s.

(Old Prints, Early 20th Century Prints, Vintage Print Lot, Erotica, Centaurs, Nymphs, Female Nudes). We do not sell bootlegs. It begins with Nin struggling to reconcile the man she married (who had artistic aspirations) with the banker she finds herself living with in the Parisian suburbs. Some indie titles or signed editions may not have shrinkwrap. Not only is she an inspiration for contemporary figures such as Madonna, but her oeuvre, which encompasses erotica, autobiography, essays, short fiction, novels, and much more, has been adapted into film (Henry and June), television (Little Bird), and other media. Although Bischoff’s drawing is largely representational, she occasionally depicts Nin’s sexual experiences in scenes as surreal as Nin’s own written portrayal of them. All items are new and sealed. All product arrives from the distributor or is directly from the filmmakers. Soon, her obsession with June Miller leads to inspiration. [B5312].
