What is Marilyn's Last Sessions : a Novel about?

4.25 am, 5 August 1962, West Los Angeles Police Department ‘Marilyn  Monroe has died of an overdose’, a man’s voice says dully. And when the  stunned policeman asked ‘What?’, the same voice struggled to repeat  ‘Marilyn Monroe has died. She has committed suicide.’ If life were scripted like the movies, this extraordinary phone call would have  been made by the most important man in Marilyn Monroe’s life – Dr Ralph  Greenson, her final psychoanalyst. During her last years Marilyn had  come to rely on Greenson more and more. She met with him almost every  day. He was her analyst, her friend and her confessor. He was the last  person to see her alive, and the first to see her dead. In this  highly acclaimed novel, Marilyn’s last years – and her last sessions on  Dr Greenson’s couch – are brilliantly recreated. This is the story of  the world’s most famous and elusive actress, and the world she  inhabited, surrounded by such figures as Arthur Miller, Truman Capote  and John Huston. It is a remarkable piece of storytelling that  illuminates one of the greatest icons of the twentieth century.
