2012 marks the 50th anniversary of Marilyn Monroe’s death. Now, in unabridged audio for the first time, we present Norman Mailer’s acclaimed in-depth biography of Hollywood’s most enduring icon.

This extraordinary biography of the legendary screen star Marilyn Monroe was originally published in 1973 by Norman Mailer, one of America's most important writers of the second half of the Twentieth Century. Mailer, the winner of two Pulitzer Prizes, was the first writer to explore the relationship between Monroe and Bobby Kennedy. When published, this book was the subject of Time and Life magazine cover stories, was on The New York Times Bestseller List and became a full selection of the Book of the Month Club.
