description: Under a Glass Bell was self-published by AnaÃ¯s Nin in 1944, using a manual press. This collection of thirteen short stories, beautifully crafted in a style influenced by French surrealism, but uniquely Ninâ€s, brought her national attention when Edmund Wilson of The New Yorker reviewed it. Considered one of Ninâ€s most successful works of fiction, the tales attain psychological realism through illusory symbolism.Among the titles are â€œHouseboat,â€ â€œThe Mouse,â€ â€œRagtime,â€ â€œThe Labyrinth,â€ and â€œBirth.â€Under a Glass Bell is a celebration of the passionate language of AnaÃ¯s Nin.
