Drawn from the original, uncensored journals of Anais Nin, "Henry and
June" is an intimate account of a woman's sexual awakening. It covers a
single momentous year - from late 1931 to the end of 1932 - during Nin's
life in Paris, when she met Henry Miller and his wife, June. She fell in
love with June's beauty and Henry's writing and, soon after June's
departure for New York, began a fiery affair with Henry, which liberated
her sexually and morally but undermined her marriage and led her into
psychoanalysis. One question dominated her thoughts: what would happen
when June returned to Paris? That event took place in October 1932,
leaving Nin trapped between two loves - Henry and June.
