Rupert Pole drives Anais Nin in a Ford Model A with the top down from New York to Los Angeles:
Holland Tunnel, Washington DC, Smokies National Park, Roanoke, Virginia, caverns of Luray in the Shenandoah Valley, North Carolina, Winston-Salem, South Carolina, Atlanta, Georgia, Mobile, Alabama, New Orleans, Lake Ponchartrain, Delta country, Mississippi River, Little Rock, Arkansas, Oklahoma City, Texas, Pecos, Albuquerque, New Mexico, Santa Fe, Taos, Denver, Colorado, Boulder, Rocky Mountain National Park, Continental Divide, Fraser, Colorado, Central City, Royal Gorge, Grand Junction, Colorado, Colorado National Monument, Colorado River, Utah, Moab, Arches National Monument, Blanding, Bluff, Mexican Hat, Monument Valley, Tuba City, Lee's Ferry, Bright Angel Point, Grand Canyon, Las Vegas, Los Angeles.
In LA, Anais meets Lloyd Wright, son of Frank Lloyd Wright, whose work reinforces individuality rather than uniformity and monotony, as did his father's. His work relates to the personality of the individuals residing in its structures. He crusades for quality and has a sense of eternity and history. His work endures.
Anais wants her work to endure as well. She believes it will if it is first transformed into a myth and possesses a magic quality. She has spent most of her lifetime creating the myth of herself and her life.
