First edition
D. H. Lawrence: An Unprofessional Study was Anaïs Nin's first book in print, published by Edward W. Titus in Paris, 1932.[1] The original edition saw 550 copies, and was relatively well received in the literary community. It is a study of the works of her literary hero D. H. Lawrence. The book is notable because it was published at a time when many critics were turning their backs on Lawrence. At the time, it was virtually unheard of for a woman to praise Lawrence, a man whose works had been very controversial, and in several cases, banned for their sexual content.
