In November 1960, Frank Sinatra gave Marilyn Monroe a dog named Maf. Maf had an instinct for the twentieth century, politics, psychoanalysis, literature, and interior decoration. This is his story. Maf the dog was with Marilyn for the last two years of her life, witnessing significant events and cultural shifts. The story of Maf provides a unique perspective on the life of Marilyn Monroe and the extraordinary period of the twentieth century.
