Anais Nin was a woman ahead of her time. By today's standards, she would be like most woman, trying to find out who she is, navigating a path through life and trying to juggle her needs versus the words expectations of her.
You may recognize her name as it pops-up on pinterest boards as the author of a quote. However, few know that Anais as the E.L. James of her generation. She blazed a trail for modern female authors. Back then is was shocking for a woman to write erotic fiction, however, now she would probably be interviewed on Good Morning America.
She is often romantically linked with Henry Miller, yet her husband Hugh Guiler is rarely mentioned. She even married a second time, without ever divorcing Guiler. Her life story sounds like an epic movie with scenes taking place in romantic locations such as Cuba, France, New York and California.
Anais Nin led a complex life and poured her thoughts into beautifully written poems, essays, novels, diaries and - most popular, her quotes. Here are a few favorites. One is surely to speak directly to your soul.
