I was informed that a
woman... just embarking on her study of the life of Rudolph
Valentino... posted an inquiry on the Facebook group run by Eleanor
Gribbin. This woman posted an image of the cover of Affairs Valentino
with the question, “What is all the hoopla about this book”?
I could answer that
question point by point and feel I have over the past eleven years,
on many blogs, and in a lawsuit even... but I will post as my answer
a comment which is currently posted (..in Italian with English translation below) on Renato's
Facebook Group @
(Affairs
Valentino) is..”A compelling book that I literally devoured in 3
days and that is now being read by my father. The book is the result
of a titanic work of documentary research and intellectual courage.
Anyone interested in objective and documented truths about
Valentino's private life, buy this book and start what for me was a
daring and compelling journey, far from the stereotypical narratives
of boring and all equal biographies.”
Gribbin positions herself
as administrator of a Facebook group on Valentino and what was her
response to this woman's honest inquiry about Affairs Valentino?...
she just deleted the post.
We know from Cindy Martin
that Eleanor Gribbin conspires with Simon Constable, Tracy Ryan
Terhune and Donna Hill in their years and years now of lying about and shunning of all of our
books...and I will not hold her solely responsible for her rude
deletion and censorship.
But I add Gribbin did
delete an inquiry about the book Michael Morris was quoted as saying
was, “The best written and best researched book on Rudolph
Valentino.”
Why would she do that? No
doubt because Affairs Valentino is true... and she, along with her
team mates are loyalists to the Valentino family who control the
ancient and very false narrative about Valentino's life; a version
of the story in which the villains are heroes and the actual heroes
the villains, a version which fails to report the facts of the story
as told in court records and other documentation which the family
had, and has, in their possession for decades and kept hidden from
anyone's eyes.
Gribbin deletes an inquiry
about the most documented and true book on Valentino and she does so
to uphold the lies told about it... that is the hoopla. The hoopla
being these people's desperate efforts to burn the book, bury it
forever and hope no one reads it. But I must admit that when people
do read it.. they know the truth and furthermore they know these
people are straight up liars.
I hope this woman does
read Affairs Valentino and judges for herself. Because on so many
occasions over the years, people have contacted me after reading the
book to say they specifically bought it and read it after they were
told not to.
Gribbin's fast deletion
just sold a book no doubt and while she feigns her righteousness and
gains favor with the Valentino family... perhaps earning herself a
Rudy shirt as a reward...... she bolsters her masquerade by allowing her followers to trash David
Bret as if he is some great monster... She appears to distance
herself from him completely but I wonder if those followers know she
still permits David Bret to be a member of the group.. under his
known alias, Albert Morris.... and "Mosko Bosko"..
I say to the censor
Eleanor Gribbin.. she can not have it both ways. And if she were
indeed someone with an honest interest in Valentino... and not an
obedient shill of the Valentino family... she would be encouraging
this woman to read the mighty book.
The book at the center of
their insanely ridiculous hoopla!
It is all so medieval to
burn books, Eleanor Gribbin. Did you know that in the late 1930's the Nazis were burning books to prevent their followers from reading what they considered subversive literature?...and while chuckling as you believed you
heaved another copy of my book into the raging fire there... you were
actually piquing someone's interest. So should I curse you or thank
you?
