ABOUT THE BOOK

When Chris Heath’s book with Robbie Williams was first published in September 2004 it became an instantaneous bestseller. So far, so predictable...

However its honesty, humour and intelligence took the literary critics by surprise. The review in the Saturday Telegraph read, ‘Feel is far too good to be confined to Robbie Williams fans. It is one of the great documentaries of our time’. In a world of deceptive images and pampered celebrity Feel has a unique wit and energy, and a shockingly honest edge. It is a groundbreaking book.

Chris Heath’s writing is evocative, compulsive and extremely funny. His book is one of the very few to ever explore eloquently the nature of fame, ambition and talent. It has been praised as the most extraordinary book ever to be written on the business of celebrity, but at heart it is a beautifully constructed, very surreal tale of an ordinary young man thrust into a most peculiar world.


		ABOUT THE AUTHOR Robbie Williams first conceived the idea for this book when Chris Heath came to interview him in 2002. Robbie felt that between them, he and Chris, a friend and respected music journalist, would write the very best and most honest book. Chris, also an investigative news writer, has written for Rolling Stone, Details, Telegraph and Sunday Times, amongst many others. His subjects have varied from Madonna and Lisa Marie Presley to politicians, murderers and artists. Chris and Robbie spent nearly two years working on this book.

	NATIONAL LIBRARY FOR THE BLIND
	Imagine not being able to get hold of the book all your friends are saying you must read. Newspapers, magazines and TV shows are telling you it’s one of the best books they’ve ever read, but you can’t read it, let alone express your views or vote for it. Thankfully that is not the case with Richard & Judy’s Best Read! Once again, the National Library for the Blind (NLB) has worked closely alongside Richard & Judy to make sure blind people can take part in the Best Read and is producing the short-listed books in Braille to sit alongside each book club programme. Find out more information on buying or borrowing these books, and more information about NLB here...
