intervital asked: I want to read Anais Nin but I don't know if I should start off with her fiction, her diaries, or her biographies. What do you think I should try first?
First things first, I’ve never read Nin, but heavens! Don’t start with the biography. You’ll only read her fiction as symptoms of her life—diminishing it, somehow, if you ask me (which, ha ha, literally you are). If you end up loving her, go to the bio later. That said, having consulted a few who have Ninned a time or two, everyone says start with Henry & June.
