![]() ![]() There is a wistfulness and sadness that I feel runs through the book. She was highly astute about many issues and when I was reading this book I was amazed that many of her insights into situations are still relevant today. Marilyn, as we know, was a highly intelligent woman and this comes across. Milton's photographs are a joy to behold and if you have his photographic book on Marilyn too, many of these pictures will be familiar to you, although there were a couple of gems in there which I had not seen. It finishes somewhat abruptly, but that is purely due to her not carrying on this project I suspect and never revisiting it. It starts with the struggles she had in her childhood and goes through her hard work in trying to break into Hollywood and finally finishes just after her marriage to Joe. It's as though Marilyn is speaking to you, spilling out her inner most thoughts and wishes. Read it straight away couldn't put it down. ![]() ![]() I am a huge fan of Marilyn and collect anything to do with her, especially books. ![]()
