Madly, Deeply: The Diaries of Alan Rickman
by Alan Rickman
I was super excited about reading this but ultimately felt that this was not meant for public consumption. I had to skim read the book as there’s just a lot of… nothingness… which is to be expected of anyone’s diary really (so nothing on Rickman himself).
This was an edited set of diary entries, but there’s no clarity on what the editing was around. There’s also a bit in the introduction where the editor mentions not knowing whether Rickman would’ve wanted his diaries published. Knowing this as I was flicking through the book made me slightly uncomfortable, but his estate clearly authorized this so hey ho.
Disappointed as I’m a huge Rickman fan, and the end of the book made me melancholy, but ultimately just an “ok” book for me.
