Anais Nin was ahead of her time. In an era where propriety was everything, she dared to do as she pleased... and then write about it in her journal. Living La Vie Boheme in Louveciennes, she chronicles her passion for writing, psychoanalysis, and extramarital affairs. This journal is unique in that she writes about her life, then analyzes it with remarkable awareness. "Fire" is made even more interesting by the intimate details of Anais Nin's long affair with Henry Miller. (
