Reveal: Robbie Williams
Reveal: Robbie Williams | Chris Heath
5 posts | 3 read
An intimate, funny and frank account of the moments behind the music, of the truth behind the headlines and of the fascinatingly complicated man behind the imperious entertainer, Reveal is Robbie Williams as you've never seen him before. More than twelve years ago, Robbie Williams and Chris Heath published a ground-breaking memoir, Feel, about Robert P. Williams' rise to fame; a book that was met with worldwide acclaim, from critics and fans alike. Since that time, Robbie has released six solo albums, reunited with his old band Take That and, in the wake of his twelfth UK number-one album, has returned to the stage with a sold-out run at Wembley Stadium. In Reveal, bestselling author Chris Heath has been working closely with Robbie for many years to create a personal and raw account of fame, fortune, family and music; a vivid and detailed story of the real highs and lows as Robbie has found his way forward, that is unprecedented in its intimacy and honesty. Long-awaited by millions, Reveal is the uncensored and compelling portrait of the man as you've never seen him before. "It's a diary of a very modern entertainer and his ever-changing thoughts, the story of somebody who escaped Butlins, and the tale of a pop star trying to find his feet again after coming out of early retirement. It's true, and funny, and occasionally sad, and well-written, and very entertaining. I hope people enjoy it." Robbie

Today‘s poolside reading. I‘ve always liked Robbie Williams (sometimes secretly and sometimes not so secretly). Happy to see a fellow Stokie done good.

"The thing people forget about Robbie Williams is that he's really not that bad...But what Robbie Williams is, what he will always be, is a proper pop star. Egotistical. Insecure. Contradictory. Absurd. Kind of embarrassing, but always compelling."

I'm struggling with the compelling part at the moment. The chapters flit between present day & 2006/7 with quite a lot of 'life is hard being a pop star'. Let's hope I can get past Robbie's woe is me.

It is biography central at my place right now. Quite a few to get through here and even more on my Kindle. Where to start? Ah Robbie it is. Now where did I put his Greatest Hits?

"This is a book about Robbie Williams."

It wouldn't be Christmas if I didn't get a book. Robbie is still one of my favourite musicians. I'll never forget seeing him live at the Milton Keynes Bowl and singing Strong at the top of my voice whilst swaying arm in arm with my best mate & thousands of Robbie fans. Can't wait to see what Robbie has to Reveal ?

Merry Christmas everyone ??? hope Santa bought you lots of lovely books & good tidings

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks I hope you had a great Christmas!!! 7y
