For her part, the same author of the book compared the figure of Monroe to that of Madame Bovary. “Both women were young women whose vision of love was very romantic and very unrealistic. Marilyn was so insecure, so demanding, that it was difficult for anyone to love her or even help her.. However, many men, including her second husband, baseball player Joe DiMaggio, tried it before backing away in fear. “.
