Children of the Albatross by Anas Nin

Children of the Albatross is divided into two sections: The Sealed Room focuses on the dancer Djuna and a set of characters, chiefly male, who surround her; The Cafe brings together a cast of characters already familiar to Nin's readers, but it is their meeting place that is the focal point of the story.

Anaïs Nin (1903–1977) is an iconic literary figure and one of the most notable experimental writers of the twentieth century. As one of the first women to explore female erotica, Nin revealed the inner desires of her characters in a way that made her works a touchstone for later feminist writers. Swallow Press is the premier US publisher of books by and about Nin.

Anita Jarczok teaches American literature and contemporary cultural theory at the University of Bielsko-Biała, Poland. Her research interests include literature, narrative, and gender and cultural studies, and she is the author of many articles and book chapters on Nin, celebrity, and sexuality.
