Sinopsis

'Ferociously smart ... A rare combination of guilty pleasure and intellectual insight' VOGUE

'Perceptive ... Refreshing ... Tears away layers of false readings and conspiracy theories' NEW YORK TIMES

Intricately researched ... Churchwell's Marilyn is a complex, well-rounded creature in the best sense - the human sense' OBSERVER

There are many Marilyns: sex goddess and solitary figure, crafty manipulator and dumb blonde, liberated woman and innocent child.

In incisive and passionate prose, Sarah Churchwell looks at how the stories we tell have trivialised a woman we supposedly adore, and at what they reveal about our attitudes towards sex symbols and icons, to women, death, biography and Marilyn herself.
