The Life and Opinions of Maf the Dog, and of his friend Marilyn Monroe by Andrew O'hagan
In November 1960, Frank Sinatra gave Marilyn Monroe a dog. The story of Maf the dog is a hilarious and highly original peek into the life of a complex canine hero - he was very much a real historical figure, with his license and photographs sold at auction along with Marilyn's other person affects.
Seemlessly and wittily blends fact and fiction - Maf's insightful, quirky, forthright opinions and scholarly observations on everything from Jack Kennedy to civil rights, the space race and interior decoraton are both illuminating and screamingly funnyEasy Living
