Making Sense of Marilyn

There has been much debate about Marilyn’s frame of mind when she knowingly or unknowingly took her own life. Was it mental illness and instability that led Marilyn to an increasing reliance on drugs (and drink), until she finally died from a self-administered excess of them? Had her psyche, right from the beginning, contained the seeds of her own destruction? By teasing out what is authentic from what is inauthentic, this book sheds new light on the enigmatic character of Marilyn Monroe, who is regarded, arguably, as the world’s most famous movie star.
