Dietrich Reviews

'There isn't much flab on this elegant monograph on Marlene Dietrich, which almost seems chiseled to the pattern of its subject's cheekbones. Dietrich worked hard as a pack horse in the upkeep of her legend, and the author follows suit with a no-nonsense prose that states the facts ...' Sight & Sound 200309 'This wonderful pocket biography recounts the life and loves of a true superstar.' The Daily Express 20030125
