5 Reasons To Read Anais Nin, Queen Of Feminist Erotica | Ravishly | Media Company
Welcome to the 21st century, in which women have more power than ever before, yet have less power than ever before as well. The latter is likely because we are now starting to understand the extent of our oppression, and though we can see the impressive progress we have made, we still have such a long ways to go. So, how do we cope? No other orgasm even feels as good as the one I treat to myself. Not to mention the proven benefits of regular masturbation , which include gems like better sleep, less stress, and a reduction of risk of heart attack so we can live longer and fight the patriarchy harder!!
The overwhelming presence of musicians, musical vocabulary, and specific references to musical works creates a soundtrack for readers to listen to the text as they read it. We may conclude that Nin had a personal attachment to both pieces, but that she also used the symbolism of each to reinforce scenes from her own text. In this analysis, we will investigate the role of these musical pieces within the context of the narrative to determine how they bring a further meaning to the text based on their sounds or historical relevance, paying special attention to their relationship to the expression and representaiton of female sexuality.
