Description
"From the day she was born into a troubled home to her reigning days as a Hollywood icon, Marilyn Monroe ... lived a life that was often defined by others. Here, in a ... poetic narrative, ... Carole Boston Weatherford tells Marilyn's story in a way that restores her voice to its rightful place: center stage. Revisiting Marilyn's often traumatic early life--foster homes, loneliness, sexual abuse, teen marriage--through a hard-won, meteoric rise to stardom that brought with it exploitation, pill dependency, and depression, the lyrical narrative continues through Marilyn's famous performance at JFK's birthday party, three months before her death"--Publisher marketing.
