It is the second volume of Jean-Paul Sartre's trilogy, Les Chemins de la Liberté (The Road to Freedom)." Bill Bird was an American publisher best known for running the Three Mountains Press, a small press that published many prominent modernists in the 1920s including Ezra Pound, Ernest Hemingway, James Joyce, William Carlos Williams and Robert McAlmon, with Ezra Pound serving as editor. Over a period of two and a half years he published 9 works. Concurrently he founded Consolidated Press Service and worked there as a journalist from 1920-1933, when he joined the New York Sun as chief foreign correspondent. Forced to flee France after the Nazi invasion, he wrote articles warning of war. After WWII he moved to Tangier and was the editor of the Tangier Gazette. This title was among Bird's private collection, having been carted by him from Paris (where he stayed until 1940), to Spain, Tangiers, and finally back to Paris and by descent to the US. 1403497.

Hard cover, 8vo, 359 [1] pp. In publisher's red cloth binding with gold lettering to spine, in pictorial dust jacket illustrated by Michael Ayrton. ** CONDITION: Near Fine, bright covers and bright gold lettering. Dust j…acket not price-clipped, showing price of 10s. Small closed tear to bottom of rear panel. Some foxing evident to folds of flaps, and less so elsewhere. ** French writer, philosopher and activist, JEAN-PAUL SARTRE (1905-1980), wrestled with the philosophical abstraction of the authentic life, and at the same time had to deal with the practicalities and real dangers of occupied France during WWII. He teased this out in the influential "The Roads to Freedom" trilogy, in which the protagonist, Mathieu, a young philosophy teacher, develops from a self-centered "intellectual" to a more fully developed human who is prepared to sacrifice his life for his countrymen, and his values. THE AGE OF REASON starts this transformational journey with Mathieu finding out that his lover is pregnant. This puts him in a state of anxiety, as it seems to him to threaten both his independence and his freedom. He determines that she should terminate the pregnancy, and criss-crosses his bohemian Paris to find both the medical professional who will undertake the procedure, and the funding with which it can take place. Nothing happens the way Mathieu wants it to, but he ends up in a place where he believes he has "attained the age of reason". This sets him up for the next leg of his journey, in the The Reprieve (1945). ** REF: Contat & Rybalka, "The Writings of Jean-Paul Sartre"(1974) 45/60 (t1). (AJ). Book.
