Title
January 1 and 4, 1945 diary entries
Description
On New Year's Day, Swenson writes down her resolution: to explore the self and relate that understanding to the world at large. Three days later, she dismissively describes a psychology lecture she just attended with her partner Anca and her friend Sylvia (who would become her lover after her relationship with Anca ended).
