Actress Marina Anderson, David Carradine's ex-wife, signs book deal with Transit Publishing

Montreal, Canada (PRWEB) October 15, 2009

Marina Anderson, ex-wife of the late David Carradine, has just signed a contract with Transit Publishing for her new book entitled David Carradine: The Eye of My Tornado. It is scheduled for release on the first anniversary of David's death in June 2010. Carradine tragically passed away on June 3rd under mysterious circumstances at a hotel in Bangkok, Thailand.

This tell-all portrait will take us on a journey through Marina's life, from the abuse she suffered in her early years, to her six year relationship, three of which she was married to Carradine. In fact, as his personal manager during those six years, Marina Anderson was responsible for Carradine's career resurgence that culminated in Tarantino's Kill Bill films. This personal account represents Marina's final therapy, her way to get rid of the demons that have haunted her for so long.

Marina Anderson exposes it all: how she helped and supported David to resurrect his career, how she helped him overcome his alcohol issues and how their relationship almost destroyed her.
She reveals in detail the "dark side" of her deceased husband and how David's "deviant behaviour", including an incestuous relationship with a very close family member, contributed to the destruction of their marriage. Nevertheless, this is a balanced portrait - both critical and sympathetic. Marina provides a mature, yet loving look, at her life with David.
