Synopsis

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. Nothing is too small or grand for Dietrich’s unique eye. From her entry for hardware store—“I’d rather go to a hardware store than to the opera”—to her entry for egocentric—“If he is a creative artist, forgive him”—she transforms both the mundane and the mysterious into snapshots of her own spirit. Complete with photos from her vast career, Marlene Dietrich’s ABC is an unexpected and addicting treat.

    Archie Flynn has it all—money, charm, and a sex life that would make James Bond jealous. A successful finance career, a dream terrace home in Sydney’s The Rocks, and an endless stream of women keep him content in his eternal bachelorhood. 
    Then Jezebel Ekas walks into his life—an American MMA fighter with knockout looks and the kind of presence that makes the pants-man reconsider his ways. There’s only one problem: his past has caught up with him in the form of a rare and deeply inconvenient health complication (one he’d rather set himself on fire than explain). 
    Now, Archie must do something completely unnatural—keep his pants on! Desperate to hide the truth while winning over the woman of his dreams, he finds himself tangled in a web of lies, deception, and increasingly ridiculous situations. But could this humiliating predicament be exactly what he needs to finally grow up? 
    Highly Flawed Individual is a dark romantic comedy and enemy to lovers romance book about personal growth, self-inflicted chaos and, ultimately, love. 
    It is the origin story in the adventure series, The Misadventures of a Modern-Day Nomad.
