Container Summary

1 TLS not dated from Anais Nin to Ned O'Gorman regarding the Poets for Peace project. "America cares nothing (the men in power who make war) for the opinion of writers, poets, intellectuals... I advocated in Diary, person to person, rather than wait for institutions and organizations...I have a total conviction that writers reading poetry is an empty gesture in a materialistic society." 1 ALS dated 8/5/1965(7?) from Nin to O'Gorman. Reference to Daisy Aldan and Volume II (of the Diary?). 1 ACS postmarked 11/3/1967 from Nin to O'Gorman regarding the royalties on the record album.
