Description: Arrows of Longing presents an Anais Nin radically different from the self-conscious persona of the diaries and fiction. The woman engaged in this long, private correspondence emerges as warm, self-effacing, empathetic, and ready to bear the burdens of others. Felix Pollak, the poet whose friendship with Nin is documented here, also struggled for personal and artistic fulfillment.
