Quarto. xxx 732 xiv pp. Faint paperclip impression on a couple pages of the introduction a bit of gilt spine rubbed off bottom corner of rear board lightly bumped very good or better in a good only dust jacket with several tears creases and toning. Owner name of Clifford Sellers Henderson on front fly dated 1953 with the inscription: "Most disappointing limited point of view. C.S.H." Henderson was a founding editor of the Reader's Digest Book Club and was married to Ralph Ernest Henderson who was the creator and first editor in chief of The Reader's Digest Condensed Books. The book was possibly being considered for the book club or the condensed books as there is also a laid in note addressed to Ralph from someone named Harry possibly another editor with the initials "REH" at the top that reads: "Ralph: Goodness! I'm afraid I was misled by the ads. At any rate there is more in here about women than I think I want to contemplate on vacation. Thanks just the same. Harry. 2/3." The author's controversial book which was banned by the Vatican was considered a groundbreaking work of feminist philosophy and laid the groundwork for the second wave of feminism.

1953rif. 21090New York: Alfred A. Knopf 1953. First edition in English of the author's masterpiece. Octavo original half cloth. Signed by Simone de Beauvoir on the title page. Fine in a very good dust jacket with light rubbing and wear to the extremities. Housed in a custom half morocco clamshell box. Signed first editions of this classic work are rare and none have appeared at auction in the last sixty years. In 1946 Simone de Beauvoir began to outline what she thought would be an autobiographical essay explaining why when she had tried to define herself the first sentence that came to mind was “I am a woman.” That October my maiden aunt Beauvoir’s contemporary came to visit me in the hospital nursery. I was a day old and she found a little tag on my bassinet that announced “It’s a Girl!” In the next bassinet was another newborn “a lot punier” she recalled whose little tag announced “I’m a Boy!” There we lay innocent of a distinction— between a female object and a male subject— that would shape our destinies. It would also shape Beauvoir’s great treatise on the subject. The Second Sex deals with the treatment of women throughout history and is regarded as a major work of feminist philosophy and the starting point of second-wave feminism. Literary scholar Camille Paglia praised The Second Sex calling it "brilliant" and "the supreme work of modern feminism." Named by Modern Library as one of top 100 books of non- fiction of the twentieth century. Also named by The Times Literary Supplement as one of the most hundred influential books since World War II.
