paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Most of our very good books have only minor imperfections such as shelf wear consistent with a new book that's sat on a bookshop shelf for a year or two. Occasionally we may miss other minor imperfections as we have to grade books at speed. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton… mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing.

We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. "A generous, well-researched book. Dowsing tells the whole sobering tale with grace." Simon Callow, The Guardian "A superb biography of Nicol Williamson. Thoroughly researched, very judicious on the films, and a sympathetic and sensitive appraisal of the man without ever being sentimental o…r sycophantic. A fine tribute to a remarkable talent and clearly a fascinating personality, it certainly made me want to re-view some of the movies, particularly The Bofors Gun and The Reckoning. An absorbing, mysterious tale; it reads almost like a novel in the way the narrative grips and holds you." Neil Sinyard, Senior Lecturer in Film Studies at the University of Hull and author of twenty books on film"This biography of Nicol Williamson really gets to the heart of the man and made me love him all over again. It's not only informative but heart-breaking, and Martin Dowsing has done him proud." Paul Moriarty, actor and Nicol Williamson's understudy in the Royal Shakespeare Company, 1974-75"Martin Dowsing has written a compelling biography of Nicol Williamson which follows his extraordinary career to his self-imposed exile on Rhodes. I would very much like to recommend this book to all interested in the life of this most charismatic of actors with whom I worked in his early years." Michael Culver, actor"A welcome and well-researched account of the life and work of perhaps the greatest British actor of his generation." Peter Gill, playwright and theatre director"Startlingly honest, balefully funny at times, and respectful of the huge talent that inspired it, this is an extraordinarily rich and detailed biography. Nicol was the most unforgettable character I knew and worked with, and this account vividly illuminates his genius and his demons." Leslie Megahey, director on Nicol Williamson's one-man show Jack - A Night on the Town with John BarrymoreNicol Williamson became famous overnight for his performance in John Osborne's Inadmissible Evidence in 1964 at London's Royal Court Theatre, going on to gain a reputation as perhaps the best - and most difficult - British actor of his generation and ending the '60s with a Hamlet which became as legendary as it was controversial. The following year he was invited to perform at the White House - the first actor ever to receive such an invitation - but Williamson's spectacular early success was not to last. Despite a number of impressive leading roles, his film career was less successful, although his portrayal of Merlin in Excalibur remains a popular favourite. Later, his appearances dwindled and finally ceased altogether. Nicol Williamson was an incendiary talent who once burned brightly - did he simply burn himself out or were there other reasons for his downfall?Over the course of 4 years, Martin Dowsing interviewed and corresponded with more than 50 people who knew Williamson, including many of his colleagues, his family and his closest friends. The author was also granted exclusive access to an unbroadcast 4-hour career-spanning interview with Williamson filmed in 2005.This book reveals how Williamson's bizarre career path was shaped by his unique outlook on life, his enormous personality and his own personal demons. The book includes an afterword by Nicol's son, Luke Williamson. Other contributors to the book include his first wife, Jill Townsend; actors Elaine Bromka, Michael Culver, Penny Fuller, Ian Hogg, Glenda Jackson, Jane Lapotaire, Paul Moriarty, Steffan Rhodri, Clive Swift and David Warner; directors Robert Bierman, the late Jack Gold, Piers Haggard, Terry Hands, Robert Knights, Richard Lester, Peter Levin, Walter Murch, John Tydeman; Tony Garnett, Nicholas Meyer and many more.
