Synopsis

Though now in retirement and claiming to be long past the more demanding aspects of courtship, Myrna P Barnum, resident of Bel Air and friend of the stars, has the wisdom of experience on her side. As Hollywood's first and only ever on-screen love coach (her hands-on role made her, shall we say, irreplaceable) and a veteran of seven magnificent Hollywood marriages herself, Myrna is amply equipped to coach today's generation of young men and women in the subtle arts of romance. Using famous scenes from the silver screen to outline her maxim d'amour, she takes the reader on an idiosyncratic tour of the dating game. Fasten your seat belts and prepare for a bumpy ride. Each spread has a short pithy piece of Myrna's love advice on one page with a full-page still demonstrating the point on the page opposite.

About this title

About the Author:

Myrna P. Barnum, though unwilling to state her exact age, can reveal she was in the year below Zsa Zsa Gabor at Hollywood High. She now lives in retirement at her modest fourteen-bedroom home where her needs are catered for by her young valet and chauffeur Vladimir. Myrna is, I hope you've guessed, a made-up Hollywood Grande Dame fallen on hard times. She claims to have been intimate with all the greats but all that plastic surgery may have affected her brains.
