Death propels Anna Nicole Smith biography
The death of Anna Nicole Smith, which made headlines around the world, has propelled sales of a biography of her, Great Big Beautiful Doll by Eric and D'Eva Redding, according to the New York Times.
Booksellers and retailers have ordered thousands of copies of the book, which was published by US publisher Barricade Books a decade ago, sending it into an additional printing of 15,000 copies. "Barricade, almost eerily prescient, had completed an updated version weeks ago that was scheduled to be issued in trade paperback this spring," reports the paper.
