Anaïs Nin, A Spy in the House of Love

In A Spy in the House of Love Nin looks at the idea that different (romantic) relationships bring out or satisfy different parts of our personalities. It's not clear if this woman is adapting herself to the men, or looking for different things in each of them, maybe a little of both. It's a look at roles, dynamics and ideals or hopes in relationships. It is relatable and seems years ahead of its time.
