Anais Nin here begins her series of beautiful, thought-provoking diaries. The seeds of her long journey of self-discovery begin here. Although the reader will not encounter the germination until much later, a look at the path Nin set out for herself provides interesting insights into human behavior, the nature of international relationships and challenging perceptions. Whatever your personal opinion of Nin's life might be, hers is a story well worth reading--if only for the beautiful manner in which she constructs it.
