Anthony Summers
Marilyn Monroe, born to deprivation and a series of foster homes, became an acting legend of the 20th century. She married famous men, Joe DiMaggio and playwright Arthur Miller, and her many lovers included President John F. Kennedy. Her death, at 36, is a mystery that remains unsolved to this day.
Anthony Summers interviewed 600 people for this book, which reveals unknown truths, some funny, some very sad, about this brilliant but troubled woman. First to gain access to the files of Monroe's last psychiatrist, he throws light on Monroe's troubled psyche and her addiction to medications. He establishes once and for all that she was intimately involved with John and Robert Kennedy, who probably covered up the circumstances of her death.

The narrator did a fantastic job. I love the "voice " she used for Marilyn. It's exactly how I pictured her.
Bravo.

Her paradoxical life appears very much a reflection of her twin persona, born under the Gemini zodiac. A walking contradiction with a dichotomous mind. Playfully joyful and childlike, yet sad, troubled and unstable. Seductively addictive who could "play the naive sex symbol", yet deeply cerebral and highly intelligent. Universally loved by many, yet lived a solitary and lonely existence, never having learned to love herself.
She loved others unconditionally, but could never find another to love her truly for who she was. Inspirationally beautiful but devastatingly tragic life. She deserved so much more than what she received in her brief but incandescent life. RIP MM
