Marilyn Monroe : the last interview and other conversations / by Monroe, Marilyn,1926-1962,author.; Doyle, Sady,writer of introduction.;
Nearly 60 years after her death, Marilyn Monroe remains an icon whom everyone loves but no one really knows. The conversations gathered here, spanning her emergence on the Hollywood scene to just days before her death at age 36, show Monroe at her sharpest and most insightful on the thorny topics of ambition, fame, femininity, desire, and more. These pieces reveal not the tragic heroine she's become in the popular imagination, but a justifiably angry figure breaking free of the limitations the world forced on her.

Osebol : voices from a Swedish village / by Kapla, Marit,1970-author.; Graves, Peter,1942-translator.; translation of:Kapla, Marit,1970-Osebol.English.;
Near the river Klaralven, snug in the dense forest landscape of northern Varmland, lies the secluded village of Osebol. It is a quiet place: one where relationships take root over decades, and where the bustle of city life is replaced by the sound of wind in the trees. Marit Kapla has interviewed nearly every villager between the ages of 18 and 92, recording their stories verbatim. What emerges is at once a familiar chronicle of great social metamorphosis, told from the inside, and a beautifully microcosmic portrait of a place and its people.
