Summary of Andrew Morton's Monica's Story

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 In 1973, Marcia Lewinsky gave birth to her first child, Monica Samille. As the proud father, Bernie, looked on, the nurses who had helped Marcia through her longest day marveled at the beautiful long eyelashes of her seven-and-a-half-pound daughter. #2 Monica’s strength of will, which some might call obstinacy in one so young, surfaced again when her aunt Debra was due to marry her fiance Bill Finerman at his grandmother’s home in Beverly Hills in 1976. Monica insisted that her light-blue dress be sleeveless, and the bride had to cut the sleeves off. #3 While some have portrayed Marcia as a flighty socialite, she was actually a homebody who spent her time and energies on her children. She was a well-established private school with a rigorous academic and social reputation. #4 There were incidents at school, if not of physical bullying, at least of the casual cattiness and cliquishness of children, particularly girls, which often remain as a canker in the psyche well into adult life.
