Vintage Feminism: classic feminist texts in short formWITH AN INTRODUCTION BY NATALIE HAYNES
When this book was first published in 1949
it was to outrage and scandal. Never before had the case for female
liberty been so forcefully and successfully argued. De Beauvoir's belief
that 'One is not born, but rather becomes, woman' switched on light
bulbs in the heads of a generation of women and began a fight for
greater equality and economic independence.
These pages contain
the key passages of the book that changed perceptions of women forever.
