Información de la editorial

He scares us witless, and he won our hearts. He was Frankenstein's monster, rising to stardom encased in sixty-five pounds of putty and padding. No matter how horrific the roles, he made them as vulnerable -- almost human -- as they were frightening, and softened our fear even as he sparked it. He was Boris Karloff: The epitome of horror, one of Hollywood's greatest and most productive stars. But Boris Karloff himself -- private, even secretive -- eluded his biographers and his fans. Now one of his closest friends has given us a book that finally reveals the fascinating and complex man behind the screen image, one whose nature was completely at odds with the roles that made him famous, and who was always 'dear Boris' to those who knew him best.
