Book Description
Like her art, Marilyn Monroe was rooted in paradox: She was a powerful star and a childlike waif; a joyful, irreverent party girl with a deeply spiritual side; a superb friend and a narcissist; a dumb blonde and an intellectual. No previous biographer has recognized-much less attempted to analyze-most of these aspects of her personality. Lois Banner has. With new details about Marilyn's childhood foster homes, her sexual abuse, her multiple marriages, her affairs, and her untimely death at the age of thirty-six, Marilyn is, at last, the nuanced biography Monroe fans have been waiting for.

Book Description
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. ANNIVERSARY EDITION WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY THE AUTHOR AND MANY NEW AND EXTENDED DIARY ENTRIES In 1999 Charles Casillo published the best-selling novel The Marilyn Diaries, with a fresh and dramatic concept of fictionalizing the life of Marilyn Monroe-in the diary format-fantasized by the author. The book became a groundbreaking addition to Marilyn Monroe literature.

Book Description
A New York Times Best Seller! Since Marilyn Monroe died among suspicious circumstances on the night of August 4, 1962, there have been queries and theories, allegations and investigations, but no definitive evidence about precisely what happened and who was involved . . . until now. In The Murder of Marilyn Monroe: Case Closed, renowned MM expert Jay Margolis and New York Times bestselling author Richard Buskin finally lay to rest more than fifty years of wild speculation and misguided assertions by actually naming, for the first time, the screen goddess’s killer while utilizing the testimony of eye-witnesses to exactly what took place inside her house on Fifth Helena Drive in Los Angeles’ Brentwood neighborhood. Implicating Bobby Kennedy in the commission of Marilyn’s murder, this is the first book to name the LAPD officers who accompanied the US Attorney General to her home, provide details about how the Kennedys used bribes to silence one of the ambulance drivers, and specify how the subsequent cover-up was aided by a noted pathologist’s outrageous lies. This blockbuster volume blows the lid off the world’s most notorious and talked-about celebrity death, and in the process exposes not only the truth about an iconic star’s tragic final hours, but also how a legendary American politician used powerful resources to protect what many still perceive as his untarnished reputation. Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our Arcade imprint, are proud to publish a broad range of books for readers interested in history--books about World War II, the Third Reich, Hitler and his henchmen, the JFK assassination, conspiracies, the American Civil War, the American Revolution, gladiators, Vikings, ancient Rome, medieval times, the old West, and much more.
