5.0 out of 5 stars sad person - good writer - interesting life, 15 Dec 1999
By A Customer
i bought the book when i was in scotland. it was my first english-language book i ever read. i understood every word. i ate the book, actually. i like the great Kenneth Williams and i feel sad when i think about his sad life. one could think that a bit Kenny is in everyone of us. good written book about a sad but interesting life of one of the biggest comedian (what he never could believe) in GB. i hope he will live forever in our hearts...

5.0 out of 5 stars The man with the funniest nose on film, 19 Nov 2001
By A Customer
Kenneth Williams is one of Britain's best loved comic performers. Many of his fellow acting coleagues have said that he just has to walk on stage and people can't control their laughter which just erupts out of the blue.
In his autobiography he leaves nothing to miss. He gives a perfect detailed account of his life on stage as well as off.
Full with wity tales about his life, Just Williams is all the more reliable as unlike most biographies Kenneth Williams had over forty years worth of diaries to reaccount the greatest moments in his life and thereby leaving you with a first hand impression on the man who appeared in more Carry-ons then aybody else.

5.0 out of 5 stars An addictive - but one sided account - of Williams life, 30 April 2000
By A Customer
A wonderful read - even though I don't usually read autobiographies. You get the impression that there is a lot more to his life that wasn't revealed. As with so many comics it seems that he wanted the audiences to love him as he didn't really seem to love himself.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant
This book was truly brilliant, He kept each important stage of his life to just the right amount so you knew what went on but not too much so you got bored! Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars Familiar but still funny
Kenneth Williams own account of his life up to 1975 is as often sad as it is amusing, from his working class roots to appearing with Bergman in the West End. Read more
