- Book Synopsis
- A century on from the birth of Marilyn Monroe - this is the definitive biography of a true icon 'Gets as near to the heart of the mystery as anyone ever will' Guardian More than half a century after her death, Marilyn Monroe is arguably still one of the most famous people in the world. Her life was a contrast of public brilliance and private misery, her death a tragedy suffused by dark questions - about her relations with President John F. Kennedy and his brother Robert. Drawing on more than 600 first-hand interviews, Anthony Summers offers the classic, definitive biography of a woman who captivated the world. Marilyn's tragic story is clouded by gossip-reporting more than almost any other. GODDESS, however, delivers new, fully documented yet exciting fact. 'The fullest factual account of Monroe's life and death we're likely to get' Evening Standard 'The definitive story of the legend' Irish Times 'Remarkable ...The ghost of Marilyn Monroe cries out in these pages' New York Times
