Little Birds
Little Birds is Anais Nin's second published work of erotica, which first appeared in 1979, two years after her death.

The book is a collection of short stories. The sexual topics covered are quite varied from pedophilia to lesbianism and many of the same characters that appear in Delta of Venus, her first published book of erotica, make appearances here.

From the Preface to the first Harvest edition: "As for me, my real writing was put aside when I set out in search of the erotic. These are my adventures in that world of prostitution. To bring them into the light was at first difficult. The sexual life is usually enveloped in many layers, for all of us--poets, writers, artists. It is a veiled woman, half-dreamed."
