Madly, Deeply (Paperback)

'Mesmerising... witty and debonair, caustic and fretful, for which some readers may like him less, others love him more. Madly, deeply and, better, truly he writes about what it is to be an actor' - Telegraph

'Fascinating... mostly pithy, always frank' - The Times

'The star's thoughts reveal a man unwilling to suffer fools or mince his words - most of the time Alan Rickman's voice was a purr, but it masked sharp claws... I got the feeling he was wonderful company. These diaries confirm it' - Anthony Quinn, Observer

'Insightful, moving and entertaining... the posthumously released diaries of Alan Rickman showcase both the late actor's self-doubt and savage film criticism' - Guardian

'His merciless verdicts on showbiz idiocy are tempered by a deep loyalty and humanity... so much of Rickman's character as it was preserved on screen cannot be captured in words - his unmistakable voice, his towering presence and charisma. But on the page, six years after his death, new parts of him can be found' - New Statesman
