Anaïs Nin’s writing was largely ignored by the public until the 1960s, when feminism and surrealism (themes abundant in Nin’s work) gained traction in the popular culture of the time. The French-born American author is most widely known for the publication of her personal diaries, which filled eight volumes in total. This quote comes from the second book in the series, and illustrates Nin’s desire to live a full life. In the same book, she wrote, “I have so strong a sense of creation, of tomorrow.”
