The Life and Opinions of Maf the Dog and of his friend Marilyn Monroe |
This novel has garnered rave reviews. Monroe's final years seen through the eyes of a little dog who began life at Charlestone before travelling to the United States to be bought by Frank Sinatra as a gift for the actress. A dog with decided opinions, perceptions and prone to quote numerous writers and philosophers. A concept of genius, and I wanted so much to enjoy it but found myself defeated by the writer's sheer cleverness. (Jenny Baker - bwl 57 Summer 2010) |
