------------------------------ Book details ------------------------------ Author: Marilyn Monroe Title: My Story Format: Hardback Language: English Topic: Biography: arts and entertainment Publisher: Taylor Trade Publishing Publication year: 2006 Edition: Illustrated Edition ISBN-13: 9781589793163 ISBN-10: 1589793161 RRP: £25.00
------------------------------ Description ------------------------------ Written at the height of her fame but not published until over a decade after her death, this autobiography of actress and sex symbol Marilyn Monroe (1926-1962) poignantly recounts her childhood as an unwanted orphan, her early adolescence, her rise in the film industry from bit player to celebrity, and her marriage to Joe DiMaggio. In this intimate account of a very public life, she tells of her first (non-consensual) sexual experience, her romance with the Yankee Clipper, and her prescient vision of herself as \"the kind of girl they found dead in the hall bedroom with an empty bottle of sleeping pills in her hand.\" The Marilyn in these pages is a revelation: a gifted, intelligent, vulnerable woman who was far more complex than the unwitting sex siren she portrayed on screen. Lavishly illustrated with photos of Marilyn, this special book celebrates the life and career of an American icon—-from the unique perspective of the icon herself.
