February, 1947: Another Birthday

Anais throws another party, complete with candlelight and charades. The party goers get drunk and trash her place - spilled wine, candle wax dripped on the floor, cigarettes, crumbs of sandwiches everywhere.

She has an awareness that many of the writers with whom she associates are filled with hatred which paralyses them and makes them unable to create.

Anais works on the ending of Children of the Albatross.

On her 44th birthday, she goes to a Haitian Carnival, dances all night, then goes to the Soho cafe.
