“Now, her whole story is being told in a series of books from a California publisher. A Quite Unusual Intensity of Life: The Lives, Times, and Influence of Mary MacLane, to be released in late 2014, is the first complete study of MacLane’s life, career, and influence. It tells the inside story of how she went from a 19-year-old girl in Butte, Montana writing in her diary - to a media personality heatedly discussed in London, Paris, and Sydney. Co-author Chiara di Benedetto, linguist and historia...n, says: “Mary MacLane’s impact is not just historical. Though she became famous (or infamous) in her day, she was not well-understood by her own society. Her writing anticipated the sophisticated self-knowledge and wry brand of social criticism that would emerge only after the First World War and the rise of modernism. Her forays into surrealism and metaphysical imagery, free expressions of unconventional sexuality, and many subtle layers of play and self-mockery put her beyond the understanding of her contemporaries - and make her fascinating and fresh to those newly discovering her today.MoreLessRead More Read Less
