Product Description
In The Second Sex, Simone de Beauvoir posed questions many men, women, had yet to ponder when the book was released in 1953. "One wonders if women still exist, if they will always exist, whether or not it is desirable that they should..." she says in this comprehensive treatise on women. She weaves together history, philosophy, economics, biology a host of other disciplines to show women's place in the world to postulate on the power of sexuality. This is a powerful piece of writing in a time before "feminism" was even a phrase, much less a movement. --Christine Buttery
Review
"A masterpiece" (Vogue)
"Discovering The Second Sex was like an explosion in my skull, shattering illusions bred in a conventional fifties childhood...Re-reading the book now I realise how much of it is still entirely relevant, that (despite advances) women are as much in need of liberation as ever" (Bel Mooney)
"De Beauvoir was not just a genius as a theorist. She dared to live it. Challenging conventional marriage sexual practice, she used her own experience to explore the emotional costs of jealousy, attachment, monogamy, bohemianism, sexuality, of love" (Susie Orbach)
"A fine piece of work, a lucid translation" (Independent)
"A fresh, much exped, more intelligible book which repays re-reading by adherents of the old version, cries out for attention from young women who have not been exposed to this most powerful of feminist thinkers" (Irish Times)
