mvozus Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 Hi All - November is Joan Fontaine month at TCM and there's a new book out on her too. "Joan Fontaine: Letters From a Known Woman" by Tommy Garrett is now available at Amazon and Barnes and Noble. Michelle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ralph Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 Yes, and the Fontaine book is terrible - a mishmash from cover to cover. Plus the fact of $29.95 for a 132 page book with lots of familiar pictures - that's obscene! And I'm sorry, but I won't be buying your new book on the "fabulous" Marjorie Main - also way overpriced at $45 for a 200 page biography. Marjorie Main was many things, and a wonderful actress - but "fabulous?" I don't think so. As they say on these boards,"IMHO" of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mvozus Posted November 3, 2005 Author Share Posted November 3, 2005 I don't determine the price on my books, Ralph. That's up to the publisher. Maybe you should e-mail your thoughts on that topic to McFarland... Michelle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neilelmhr Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 The book is a pitiful bit of trash, full of errors and typos. Don't waste your money on it. Writer wrote some fan letters to Joan, got a few thank you replies. That about sums up his knowledge of Fontaine (and de Havilland). Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
