The Marilyn Diaries - Charles Casillo - Bog

What if Marilyn Monroe left a diary? In this NEW EXPANDED EDITION of THE MARILYN DIARIES, imagine the secret, lost diary of Marilyn Monroe is being published for the first time. Fantasize that you are reading her enigmatic life story as if told in her own words. This is a fascinating tale of triumph and pain, beauty and tragedy. In these pages the eternal blonde goddess comes across as a living, breathing human being who will stun you with her humanity rather than the cardboard caricature based on the sexy, dumb blonde image that she created for the public. Without turning her into a series of labels, Charles Casillo recreates Marilyn Monroe as a brilliant and bewitching human being, while never looking away from her self-destructive darkside. He dramatizes Marilyn's relationships with some of the most well-know and powerful men of her era, her struggles with her work, her fear of aging, and her constant battle with personal demons. The Marilyn Diaries is a serious exploration of a complex woman overcome with complicated, unresolved contrasts-a doomed siren that, even beyond the grave, never lost her power to seduce.
