Joe Adamson's Bugs Bunny is
insider's affectionate account of the

"wascally wabbit's" cartoons from the
1930s to the present. Some 400 brilliant
illustrations create a winning background to
Adamson's detailed history and full
filmography of a favorite cartoon character
(Holt, NYC, $19.95).
Sandy Sturges' memoir of her
late husband, Preston Sturges, vividly
evokes the director/writer's undaunted

spirit, remarkable intellect and artistic gifts
(Simon & Schuster, NYC, $12 paperback).
This month finds two new addi¬
tions to the indefatiguable Marilyn Monroe
cult: Marilyn,The Ultimate Look, a large,

abundantly illustrated book by James
Haspiel that presents the intensely personal
tribute of a lifelong fan befriended by the
star (Holt, NYC $45); and Queen of De¬
sire, a biographical novel by Sam Toperoff
that ingeniously combines established facts
in Monroe's life with plausible fantasies
(HarperCollins, NYC, $20).
A decidedly unglamorous side of
Hollywood is spotlighted in three recent
exposes. Marianne Ruuth's Cruel City il¬
lustrates the tragic cost of stardom in its
inventory of the disasters that befell so
many overambitious seekers of fame and
fortune (Roundtable, Malibu, CA, $19.95); in
Tarnished Angel, Jennifer Lee narrates
her violent 10-year marriage to comedian
Richard Pryor, a searing litany of beatings,
drug abuse and degrading sex (Thunder's
Mouth Press, NYC, $21.95); and finally, A
Low Life in High Heels, penned by
Warhol starlet Holly Woodlawn (who ap¬
peared in Trash and several of Andy's other
ennui-laden epics), offers a belated mea
culpa for a life of reckless dissipation in the
irresponsible Sixties (St. Martin's Press,
NYC, $19.95).
