New York City, NY: Little Brown & Company, 1993. First Edition. First Printing.. Hardcover. Fine/Fine Dust Jacket.. New York City, NY: Little Brown & Company, 1993. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. First Edition/First Printing. 180 pages. The author's breakthrough account on subject. One of the most brilliant books on feminism and political correctness ever written. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions, of which there are several. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents Katie Roiphe's "The Morning After: Sex, Fear, And Feminism On Campus". A classic that is more relevant than ever, for women and men to read, and better than Camille Paglia. Because it is not strident and rebarbative, which Paglia can - is often determined to - be in order to make her valid points about contemporary feminism heard (and to express her understandable frustrations). Roiphe dissects and demolishes the politically correct brand of feminism that persists, is indeed even more pervasive and dominant to this day, thirty years AFTER she wrote what is assuredly the best critical assessment of latter-day feminism. It reads fresh, as though she wrote her book yesterday. Feminism has degenerated in America into a permanent sense of victimhood and entitlement at the same time. Just as important, it now means a hatred of men that is all-encompassing. "Emphasizes the feminist value of personal agency when she warns against those who have expanded the term 'rape' to encompass any unpleasant sexual encounter. She argues that rules about sexual harassment should be less vague and that women should be able to handle petty sexual innuendo" (Publishers Weekly). An absolute "must-have" title for Katie Roiphe collectors. This copy is very prominently, neatly, and beautifully signed and inscribed in purple ink-pen on the title page by the author: "For Emma, Best wishes, Katie Roiphe". It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. The recipient, who is named, obtained the signature in person. This title is a contemporary classic. As far as we know, this is the only such signed and inscribed copy of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: This is a copy of the true First Edition. By the time Roiphe published her book, it was already a bestseller as a result of its being previously serialized by the New York Times. Copies available online are in subsequent printings. A rare signed copy thus. One of the most brilliant American writers of our time. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER KATIE ROIPHE TITLE IN OUR CATALOG).
