How does Anais Nin use imagery in Henry and June: From a Journal of Love: The Unexpurgated Diary of Anais Nin, 1931-1932?

Imagery:

"When Henry telephones, I feel his voice in my veins. I want him to talk into me. I eat Henry, I breathe Henry, Henry is in the sun." (pg. 155)

"I feel my past like an unbearable weight on me, like a curse, the source of every moment I make, every word I utter." (pg. 104)
