JEAN HARLOW: AN INTIMATE BIOGRAPHY Book

Harlow: An Intimate Biography isn't a biography at all.

Its really Historical Fiction.

Harlow: An Intimate Biography has full overly dramatic dialogue, sex scenes, and its told from the perspective of Jean Harlow's agent.

At the beginning of this "biography", the author states that he met Jean Harlow's agent and interviewed but that doesn't explain why he takes on the author's pov. Either write a biography or write Historical Fiction.

The author Irving Shulman is a very talented writer and if I had known that this "biography" wasn't really a biography and was instead historical fiction I wouldn't have been so annoyed. Because of the way in which the book was written I never knew what aspects of the book were true and which were made up for dramatic effect.

No rec.
