5.0 out of 5 stars The best book i have ever read, January 15, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: The Immortals (Paperback)

Korda did extensive research on the three historical characters, Monroe & the two Kennedy brothers. Throughout this book of "fiction" history is intertwined so well that it is hard to determine where it overlaps. This work will alter your present perception of Kennedy and Monroe and will inspire you to seek out for yourself the historical facts behind the fictional work.

4.0 out of 5 stars Take this book with you on the beach!, October 23, 1996

By A Customer

This review is from: The Immortals (Paperback)

I very much enjoy that book or, may I say, that fiction. In a way that it's hard to know, "Immortels" trace the "imagine story" involving Marilyn Monroe, John F. Kennedy and Robert F. Kennedy. It was pleasant to read this! Refreshing in a way, happy, funny story! Just try it and you won't put it down until the very last page;" taking a look at thoses lips now cold and blue...Marilyn was rest in the autopsy room just like any human in this world; with a number identification". But maybe this fiction-story was in fact to recreate the life of those people we don't want to forget...
