Review # 1 was written on 2008-04-08 00:00:00 Jan Wilson A lovely book of unrequited love/lust. Simon was a curator who had taken an interest in Nin's work. The two began corresponding and, though they only met once and occasionally broke things off, continued a long, quasi-love affair through the mail. Simon has some fascinatingly long, rant-like letters in the collection.

Review # 2 was written on 2013-05-02 00:00:00 Elizabeth Schafer I knew any correspondence involving Anais Nin would energize me, but I was surprised to enjoy Felix Pollack's letters much more than hers. As expected it made me want my own literary-minded pen pal. This was a light, fun read after the first mind-numbingly dull 70 pages or so - took their correspondence a bit to gain footing and establish some real substance.
