Anais is invited to speak at several colleges and universities - Harvard, Dartmouth, Goddard College, Amherst. Rooms overflowed with absorbed people.
She develops her idea of the "ultimate novel" - one free of unnecessary detail.
Anais discusses with Gore Vidal his writing that focuses on faults and ugliness. She believes the basis of her writing is love which results in beauty, faith, extraordinary life, magic reflected in her writing.
She writes a short autobiography about how she creates her own world through "myth and a legend, a lie, a fairy tale, a magical world." She goes on to say, "I am more interested in human beings than in writing, more interested in lovemaking than in writing, more interested in living than in writing. I am gifted in relationship above all things. I have no confidence in myself and great confidence in others. I need love more than food."
