1st edition

"Diary of a State Maiden" is the first part of a series of memoirs of the French intellectual and feminist. Simone de Beauvoir critically analyzes the wealthy bourgeois family in which she grew up. She describes her childhood, her friendships, her first job (a teacher in the provinces) and her encounters with bohemia and Jean Paule Sartre - her later life companion.
