Description

Kenneth Williams' diary is a candid and often devastatingly honest record of his life, spanning over 40 years. Written from his sixteenth birthday until the eve of his death in 1988, the four million words offer a unique portrait of the beloved actor and comedian. Williams' diary is a humorous and often malicious portrayal of himself and those around him, including fellow performers Tony Hancock, Maggie Smith, and Joe Orton. With his sharp wit, love of anecdotes, and ear for dialogue, he brings his observations to life in a way that is both hilarious and harrowing. This is the first time the diary has been published, and it provides a fascinating insight into the life of one of Britain's most popular and misunderstood performers.
