The Early Diary of Anaïs Nin, in four volumes, is the portion of Anaïs Nin's lifelong personal journals and notebooks from the period before it had to be split because it became so personal that only portions could be published while any of the people involved were still living. The first volume appeared in 1978 and the fourth in 1985.

In this period, she returns from New York to Paris, and she has difficulty adjusting, accepting and making the sort of artistic friends she is used to.
