Set in a world of clandestine encounters, artistic circles and shifting sexual identities, the stories explore desire as both physical experience and imaginative creation. Nin’s characters pursue pleasure, transgression and intimacy, often discovering that fantasy is as revealing as reality.\u003c!--\/if--\u003e\u003c!--\/it--\u003e\u003c!--\/for--\u003e\u003c!--\/comp--\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c!--\/it--\u003e\u003c!--it--\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x12ofw9d\"\u003e\u003c!--comp--\u003e\u003c!--for--\u003e\u003c!--it--\u003e\u003c!--if--\u003eRather than treating eroticism as a purely mechanical subject, Nin attends to atmosphere, psychology and the language of sensation. The collection reflects her interest in female desire and in the possibilities of literary expression beyond the conventions of her time. Although its origins lie in a commercial commission, the work has become a significant part of Nin’s literary legacy and an enduring point of reference in discussions of women’s erotic writing.\u003c!--\/if--\u003e\u003c!--\/it--\u003e\u003c!--\/for--\u003e\u003c!--\/comp--\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c!--\/it--\u003e\u003c!--\/for--\u003e\u003c!--\/comp--\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gardner's EU","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":63950541029706,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}]}],"url":"https:\/\/thelamppostparis.com\/fr\/collections\/modern-classics-short-stories-erotic-literature-feminist-literature.oembed","provider":"The Lamp-Post Library \u0026 Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
