5 of 5 people found the following review helpful. Short and sweetBy DaveFor those who are disappointed that this is not a lush photography laden coffee table book. read the description and look at the price. If youve read the Vanity Fair article. then there isnt a burning reason to buy this book. unless you want to have this as part of your collection. If you havent read the excerpt from VF and youre an admirer of Marilyn. then you should definitely get Larry Schillers short but extremely insightful memoir.Schiller worked with her on two memorable occasions which this book documents. Despite its short length. it is probably one of the most three-dimensional depictions of Marilyn that I have ever read. In their brief conversations. Schiller is able to flesh out the many sides of Marilyn...both good and bad. You can see the negatives and positives of her entourage and friends. Without delving into unsubstantiated conspiracy theories. Schiller is able to give the facts that he knew personally and leaves the rest up to the reader. Marilyn was a somewhat complex character; thanks to this book. the reader learns what her motivations where at the end of her life; her joys. her disappointments. and her fears. True. there are only a handful of photos (all black and white). but each one is a gem that captures Marilyn and her multi-faceted personality. Schiller brings her back to life through words and photos as no other writer has in the past.Job well done!1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Just another leechBy WookiesmommyI purchased this book thinking that this was a one hand account about how Marilyn was so much more then what many people think of her as - a blonde bombshell. I was repulsed by the way the writer talked about selling photos of Marilyn and trying to cash in on her looks and body. Not the book it was described to be...would not recommend.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. I thought it was a cheap bootleg.By Matthew Allen Martintiny little book. tiny little black and white pictures. first thing I said when I looked at it was "is this a bootleg copy or something?" Very glad I bought it cheap and used. this thing is just sad.
