‘The Mmm Girl shows Marilyn Monroe as rational and strong, though also fighting the sadness inside her…the real person, created and affected by the actual details of her life…Tara Hanks beautifully conveys Marilyn’s feelings of loneliness and being an outsider…her writing leaves room for the imagination…the last pages of the novel are simple, sad and heartbreaking’ — Magical Marilyn
A review of The Mmm Girl and an interview with me appears in the latest Magical Marilyn magazine. Magical Marilyn is a Finnish-based fanclub with an international membership (with many articles written in both English and Finnish.) Other highlights of the current issue include news on the touring exhibition of Marilyn’s costumes designed by Bill Travilla, and an article about Marilyn’s photographer friend, Sam Shaw, whose classic portrait of her graces the cover.
