Nightwood

Nightwood was a novel written by Djuna Barnes, and it quickly became a cult work of modern fiction. It was written based on the love between Barnes and Wood, and is well known for its strong portrayal of lesbian themes. When it was first published in 1933, T.S. Elliot provided an introduction for it. The novel follows the love of Robin Vote and Nora Flood, who respectively satirize Woods and McCrea. In it Robin Vote is running from love, as she does not know what she wants. The novel is a very clearly a portrait of Barnes's and Wood's tumultuous relationship. (Herring 5-18).
