SynopsisOne ofAmerica's most acclaimed novelists boldly re-imagines one ofAmerica's most enduring icons in Blonde-the National Book Award-nominated bestseller by Joyce Carol Oates. The legend of Marilyn Monroe-aka Norma Jeane Baker-comes provocatively alive in this powerful tale of Hollywoodmyth and heartbreaking reality. Marilyn Monroe lives-reborn to tell her untold history; her story of a star created to shine brightest in theHollywood firmament before her fall to earth. Blonde is a dazzling fictional portrait of the intricate inner life of the idolized and desired movie star as only the inimitable Joyce Carol Oates could paint it., In her most ambitious work to date, Joyce Carol Oates boldly reimagines the inner, poetic, and spiritual life of Norma Jeane Baker -- the child, the woman, the fated celebrity and idolized blonde the world came to know as Marilyn Monroe. In a voice startlingly intimate and rich, Norma Jeane tells her own story of an emblematic American artist -- intensely conflicted and driven -- who had lost her way. A powerful portrait of Hollywood's myth and an extraordinary woman's heartbreaking reality, Blonde is a sweeping epic that pays tribute to the elusive magic and devastation behind the creation of the great twentieth-century American star.
