Goddess: The Secret Lives of Marilyn Monroe

Goddess: The Secret Lives of Marilyn Monroe

New York Times Bestseller: The definitive biography based on over six hundred interviews with people who knew Marilyn Monroe both professionally and intimately.
Â
Marilyn Monroe, born in obscurity and deprivation, became an actress and legend of the twentieth century, romantically linked to famous men from Joe DiMaggio to Arthur Miller to John F. Kennedy. But her tragic death at a young age, under suspicious circumstances, left behind a mystery that remains unsolved to this day.
Â
Anthony Summers interviewed more than six hundred people, laying bare the truthsâ€”sometimes funny, often sadâ€”about this brilliant, troubled woman. The first to gain access to the files of Monroeâ€™s last psychiatrist, Summers uses the documents to explain her tangled psyche and her dangerous addiction to medications. He establishes, after years of mere rumor, that President Kennedy and his brother Robert were both intimately involved with Monroe in lifeâ€”and in covering up the circumstances of her death.
Â
Written by a Pulitzer Prize nominee who has authored works on JFK, J. Edgar Hoover, and the 9/11 attacks, this investigation of an iconic starâ€™s brief life and early death is â€œremarkable. .Â .Â .Â The ghost of Marilyn Monroe cries out in these pagesâ€ (The New York Times).
