Marilyn Summary

Marilyn: Norma Jeane by Gloria Steinem

'I'm not interested in money, I just want to be wonderful'. Nearly four decades after her death Marilyn Monroe is still more famous than most living movie stars. And yet why does she continue to fascinate us? Together with the last photographs ever taken of Marilyn Monroe - just three weeks before she died - this searching and powerfully moving biography reveals the woman behind the icon, the hurt child beneath the stunning facade. 'A biography written with grace and affection. Barris and Steinem have produced a beautiful book which 'sets the record straight' as Marilyn wanted' Tribune
