Valerie Solanas

First trade edition of Solanas' misandrist manifesto calling for the extinction of men, preceded by a nearly impossible to find self-published mimeographed edition. With commentary by Paul Krassner. Solanas, who had acted in one of Andy Warhol's underground films, shot Warhol in his studio on June 3, 1968, a year after writing this radical separatist feminist manifesto. After the attack she was arrested and was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia, serving three years including a stay in a psychiatric hospital. Maurice Girodias of Olympia Press, having signed a contract with the author the year previously, published the book in 1968. Over the years, some have expressed the opinion that the Manifesto was satirical, a parody on patriarchy, but Solanas maintained her intent was serious. For the rest of her life, she continued to promote the Manifesto.

New York: The Olympia Press, 1969. Publisher's original wraps; pp. 105, [7 ads]. A very good copy. Binding firm, light general wear to wraps, pages toned as usual, else internally clean with no markings. Scarce.
