Marilyn Monroe

Sticker residue on cover and first page. Some wear to dust jacket and foxing and marks on page edges

On screen Monroe invented a character who was a happy girl - innocent, funny, with an extreme but unthreatening sexuality. The real woman was the opposite - self-loathing, tormented by past degradation, desperate for love and respect, yet aware that sexuality was her only dangerous weapon. What were the dreams and demons that drove Marilyn Monroe? How did a lost little girl, moved from foster home to foster home, transform herself into one of the world's brightest stars?
