The April/May issue of the excellent magazine Bookforum had three articles about Simone De Beauvoir. First off, there is a new translation finally coming out of The Second Sex. I have not read that since high school, but I hope to pick it up again this fall and, obviously, look forward to the new edition. Hazel Rowley writes about a fascinating trip De Beauvoir made with Jean Paul Sartre to Brazil in 1960. The always impressive Toril Moi also writes about a new collection of De Beauvoir’s journals.
