Marlene Dietrich's ABC's
A collection of the icon’s surprising and heartfelt thoughts on topics A-to-Z, plus recipes and photos—a wonderfully addictive scrapbook for fans. From the wonderfully varied and witty mind of Marlene Dietrich comes an alphabetized collection of her most zany, honest, and heartfelt thoughts. Offering her take on a range of ideas, people, and items, Marlene Dietrich’s ABC is an unprecedented glimpse into one of history’s brightest and most enigmatic stars.

Complete with photos from her vast career, Marlene Dietrich’s ABC is an unexpected and addicting treat.

Marlene Dietrich
Marlene Dietrich never threw anything away, from her good-luck black rag doll to the letters she received from her lovers. She kept every article of clothing made for her by the great French couturiers and Hollywood costume designers.
