From unpromising beginnings, Mary Duncan went out and got a life. Granddaughter of a bootlegger, she grew up in an unfashionable suburb of San Diego. Her father was a bus driver who died when she was four; her mother worked in a bar to support the kids. Mary played sports, did well in school and married a Protestant preacher. Teaching recreation at a local university, she worked her way up to become head of department. Research on playgrounds in troubled locales took her to Belfast, Tehran and Managua. For years she had a surreptitious affair with '60s guru Max Lerner, much of it at the Playboy Mansion West. Through Max among others, she developed a fascination for Henry Miller, Simone de Beauvoir and pioneers of the sexual revolution. Literary interests went with her to Moscow, where she married a second time and founded a Shakespeare and Company bookstore. Her transit now is between California and Paris, where she delves into subjects as diverse as Kafka's last mistress and Northern Ireland after 'the troubles'.
