Swallow Press first published Winter of Artifice in 1945, following two vastly different versions from other presses. The book opens with a film star, Stella, studying her own, but alien, image on the screen. It ends in the Manhattan office of a psychoanalyst-the Voice-who, as he counsels patients suffering from the maladies of modern life, reveals himself as equally susceptible to them. The middle, title story explores one of Nin's most controversial themes, that of a woman's sexual relationship with her father. Elliptical, fragmented prose; unconventional structure; surrealistic psychic landscapes-Nin forged these elements into a style that engaged with the artistic concerns of her time but still registers as strikingly contemporary.

This reissue, accompanied by a new introduction by Laura Frost and the original engravings by Nin's husband Ian Hugo, presents an important opportunity to consider anew the work of an author who laid the groundwork for later writers. Swallow Press's Winter of Artifice represents a literary artist coming into her own, with the formal experimentation, thematic daring, and psychological intrigue that became her hallmarks.

Lifesaver for playtime
This toy is AMAZING. My dog still loves to play with it every week, and somehow by magic it hasn't been broken once. We have had it for 9 months, that is a record for toys in our house. If you are on the fence, just get it already. Ours doesn't squeak anymore obviously, but we still play tug a war with it a lot and it flops and bends and bounces just fine!!

Tough and lasts
Bought this toy Sept 2025. This has been my dogs favorite toy. It was hard when we bought it and he didn’t like it at first. Once he started playing with it, it became the toy of choice. It has softened a lot and loves it even more. First thing we greeted with in the morning is Dude with the yellow toy. I’m going to buy another to have if I think it gets too soft.

He loved it
Is it durable? Not at all. Did he love it? While it lasted. Our dog is a monster chewer with toys so I go into every purchase knowing we might get 8 hours out of a toy if we're lucky, depending on visible durability. We don't even buy stuffies anymore because it's just not smart. He loved the squeak while it lasted, it's large so we never have to worry about him choking on it while running/being dumb. If you have a dog that will eat pieces of things as they destroy toys, this is not the toy for them. Ours plucks it apart piece by piece, but leaves the bits near one of us (LUCKILY!). If he didn't, we'd never buy this again. The missing star is just for lack of durability. Even for a rubber toy it felt like it didn't last very long.
