America Day by Day, Simone de Beauvoir

First American edition, first printing of de Beauvoir's provocative and amusing diary written on her 1947 four month trip across America. Embraced by the Condé Nast set in a swirl of cocktail parties in New York, where she was hailed as the “prettiest existentialist” by Janet Flanner in The New Yorker, de Beauvoir traveled west by car, train, and Greyhound, immersing herself in the nation’s culture, customs, people, and landscape. The detailed diary she kept of her trip became America Day by Day, first published in France in 1948.

New York: Grove Press, 1953. Publisher's illustrated paper boards over cloth spine; pp. x, 337. A near fine copy in a very good, unclipped dust jacket. Binding is tight and square showing minimal wear. Contemporary review clipping laid in, resulting in offsetting to front endpapers and front jacket flap, else internally clean and fine. Jacket shows light shelfwear and rubbing with a bit of toning to spine, protected in archival mylar.
