Anais Nin Winter of Artifice

The rare 1942 edition handprinted by Nin with Gonzalo More, her Peruvian paramour and namesake of the Gemor Press imprint:

“He literally battled with the press, as if it were a bronco, a bull, an animal to be tamed. His hair flew around his face, perspiration fell from his forehead, his centaur feet were kicking the pedals. The machine groaned. It seemed almost like a physical battle which he intended to win by force. He towered over it. He seemed bigger than the machine. I never saw anything more primitive, more like a battle between an ancient race and a new type of monster. Both as stubborn, both strong, both violent. Gonzalo won.”

A true “team effort,” this lovely book also features engravings by Nin’s husband, Ian Hugo.

As is typical of this 80-year-old self-published edition, there is considerable wear and chipping to the boards, with a bookseller’s stamp on the back. The contents are clean with moderate foxing.

Perhaps someone else might treasure it.
