The original, little-seen unedited version of the 1902 classic that began the confessional blog genre, as its author intended it, together with illuminating notes that trace the complex references through the range of classic and popular literature mastered by a 19-year-old girl in Butte, Montana who attained international notice under the book's altered title, "The Story of Mary MacLane." All expurgations and editings have been removed, making this edition unique among all those currently on offer.
About the author “I sing only the Ego and the individual. So does in secret each man and woman and child who breathes, but is afraid to sing it aloud.” - Mary MacLane (1881-1929) was the first of the modern media personalities a pioneer in self-revelation, in defiance of established rules, in living on her own terms - and writing about it. At age 19 she burst upon the world out of Butte, Montana with a journal of her private thoughts and longings that brought national then international attention. Through the books and newspaper articles that followed she created a completely new, individual voice decades ahead of its time. She influenced Gertrude Stein, inspired F. Scott Fitzgerald, and was hailed by America’s greatest writers and everyday people on the street. And though she inspires film, stage, and music projects to this day - though she is quoted on and off the Internet - the writer behind the writing has remained unknown until her recent rediscovery. - “She comes off the page quivering with life. Moving.” - London Times (1981 retrospect) - “Mary MacLane, 1902’s Racy, Angsty Teenage Diarist, wrote long before provocative, confessional writing was a genre of its own. Her diaries ignited a national uproar, ushering in a new era for women’s voices. Her elegant, ambitious embrace of full-disclosure had opened a door to what was possible for women.” - The Atlantic, March 2013 - “Mary MacLane’s first book was the first of the confessional diaries ever written in this country, and it was a sensation.” - N.Y. Times (editorial) - “She had a short but fiery life of writing and misadventure, and her writing was a template for the confessional memoirs that have become ubiquitous.” - The New Yorker, March 2013 - “One of the most fascinatingly self-involved personalities of the 20th century.” - The Age (Nov. 2011 feature article) - “Miss MacLane stands as the greatest sensationalist of a sensational day … She dares to tell to all the world what most people try to keep profoundly guarded … She stands for truth and dares the courage of her convictions.” - From hundreds of letters-to-the-editor on her first book - “In a pre-soundbite age she already knew how to draw blood in one direct sentence. Mary MacLane - who openly resisted the idea that she was like everyone else, of her time or any other - lived the dream, as we say nowadays, and the sun of the wide, bright world has come to shine on her again.” - The Awl, March 2013

I couldn't get through this book. Day after day it was the same thing it seemed. I got about halfway through and stopped. I HATE to not finish a book all the way through, but this one I had to force myself to read. I am usually a biography/non-fiction reader too, and I still couldn't get through this one.Product details

I Await the Devil Coming Annotated Unexpurgated eBook Mary MacLane Michael R Brown Reviews
I just found it fascinating to learn of her loneliness out there in the bleak mining country , where bob Dylan hails from. She's smart , funny but tends to go on & on. Then again there wasn't much out there at the turn of the century for a smart attractive young woman to do. She was kind of trapped. I would loved to have met her; I 've got a little of the Devil in me.
