Robbie Williams. - Softcover
The publication of Feel: Robbie Williams by Chris Heath in September 2004 caused shockwaves of controversy and delight. Not only was its publication trumpeted in tabloids, on TV and the radio, but it was also critically lauded by the broadsheets. Finally, a book had been written on the subject of celebrity and the modern world which had intelligence, honesty and humour.
Written by Chris Heath, who spent nearly two years working with Robbie on this book, every word is imbued with Robbie's humour, charisma, talent, memories and complexity. But more than ever before, this book tells the truth about his extraordinary life. You may have seen his face a million times, heard his music every day, followed him from the beginning of Take That, but this is a man with some serious surprises in store.
After years of rumour and lies, the complete, intimate story of Robert P. Williams had been written.
This is a groundbreaking book.

Review:
"The definitive book on Robbie Williams" (Heat)
"A phenomenal piece of journalism... an absorbing essay on fame and the music industry" (Observer)
"Perceptive, sympathetic and sometimes shocking. It is also - because Williams is a genuinely amusing man - wonderfully funny" (Sunday Telegraph)
"The most lustrous and scrupulously observed anatomy of the madness of top-flight 21st century celebrity existence that it has ever been my deep joy to read" (Independent on Sunday)
"It's all there, the inside story that the fans have guessed at and the tabloids have done their best to invent...Until Mrs Williams finally does appear, nobody is going to get closer to Robbie than this" (Sunday Times)

Feel: Robbie Williams is a quite extraordinary book. No other star has ever been the subject of such an honest or insightful book. Incredible detail and revelation is to be found in the book. But best of all - the book is incredibly well-written, moving and frequently extremely funny.
It's an entirely new perspective on the peculiar world of fame.
