The author reconstructs the last months in the life of Marilyn Monroe and her relationship with the Galician filmmaker José Bolaños. Like one of the shocking reports Navaza used to write for the magazines ‘Interviú’ and ‘La Calle’ in the 1970s, Marilyn’s last lover has all the ingredients of a powerful journalistic report and all the appeal of a great novel. And it goes beyond Marilyn: it avoids the myth but returns constantly to it, in a plot with intertwining stories. We meet Luis Buñuel, Richard Nixon, Al Capone, Jean Leon, Che Guevara... And along with them, anonymous characters – émigrés and exiled Galicians and Spaniards – all seduced by the American dream.
