When Anna gets to see Sandro after their long departure she says it was harrowing to be apart yet she does not want to see him. When they are finally reunited Sandro asks Anna how she is, which Anna replies back that she is feeling awful. Sandro asks why and Anna mocks him asking, out of her own frustration.

She aspires to live an “authentic existence” where she has an identity apart from her husband and father. Since this is impossible for women in her social class Anna’s existence disappears.

    When Anna Close is first introduced in the novel, As We Are Now she is referred to as Mrs. Close. From what I gather, this was to represent a sort of formality between her and Caro because they were not yet acquainted.
