Goddess: The Secret Lives Of Marilyn Monroe
The classic, definitive biography of Marilyn Monroe, now updated in the year of the 60th anniversary of the iconic star's death - now a major Netflix film, The Mystery of Marilyn Monroe: The Untold Tapes
'Gets as near to the heart of the mystery as anyone ever will' Guardian
More than half a century after her death, Marilyn Monroe is arguably still one of the most famous people in the world. Her life was a contrast of public brilliance and private misery, her death a tragedy suffused by dark questions - about her relations with President John F. Kennedy and his brother Robert. Drawing on more than 600 first-hand interviews, Anthony Summers offers the classic, definitive biography of a woman who captivated the world. Marilyn's tragic story is clouded by gossip-reporting more than almost any other. GODDESS, however, delivers new, fully documented yet exciting fact.

Review
Convincing evidence of a crude but effective cover-up which was designed to protect Robert Kennedy ― Times Literary Supplement
Gets as near to the heart of the mystery as anyone ever will ― Guardian
The most authoritative account ever written about the greatest sex symbol of them all ― Woman
A remarkable performance . . . The ghost of Marilyn Monroe cries out in these pages ― New York Times
[Marilyn] was a genius, a sorceress who could stimulate the world's sexuality and still seem innocent, turn on a light and become 'Marilyn Monroe.' And she has become eternal. This is the most believable, useful book of all the books about her -- Harvey Wasserman, former professor of psychiatry, Yale University College of Medicine
Mesmerizing ... reads like something out of a Robert Ludlum thriller ― BOSTON GLOBE
A very fine piece of writing ― LITERARY REVIEW
Anthony Summers is one of the most highly skilled investigative reporters writing today -- Norman Mailer
