I always wonder about pieces like this that are classified as nonfiction but are written from such an internal perspective. Writing in Nin‘s voice is pretty much always going to be a loosing battle. And while the broad strokes biographical details are there, the narrative constructed around them isn‘t really in line with my vision of Nin. ⬇️⬇️⬇️

IndoorDame Still, the colored pencil illustrations are incredibly evocative, and they tell a story that‘s completely in line with my vision of her. They‘re almost worth a pick all by themselves. 4mo

“I believe one writes because one has to create a world in which one can live. I could not live in any of the worlds offered to me — the world of my parents, the world of war, the world of politics. I had to create a world of my own, like a climate, a country, an atmosphere in which I could breathe, reign, and recreate myself when destroyed by living. That, I believe, is the reason for every work of art.“

Remembering Anais Nin on her birthday.

Solstice treat. Many years have passed since I‘ve read any Anais Nin.
