This first blurb is from The New York Times, October 11, 1902.
OUR CABLE LETTERLatest News About English Authors and Publishers.Special Cable to the NEW YORK TIMES.William Heinemann will publish Oct. 16 an new book of "extracts from a girl's diary," called "For Her Sex," which will probably excite severe criticism because of its ostensibly "frank" and unquestionably crude way of dealing with subjects usually treated with reserve. It is whispered that the book is of American origin and has already been published in New York under another title.
The second one is from London St. James Gazette, October 20, 1902.
"For Her Sex" being supposedly extracts from the diary of a girl suicide, is issued under an anonymous editorship. The result is so morbid, so erroneous, and so stupid that the anonymity may well be preserved. We are neither thrilled nor edified. (Heinemann.)
Aren't you interested?
