This book feels as if you had sat down for a long, *long* lunch with your catty, fascinating uncle, and then just get him all spun up and rolling on telling a bunch of loosely connected personal stories. Artistically brilliant? No. comprehensively informative? Also no, you should probably look for a regular biography for that. Edifying about the man himself, even as he tries in subtle ways to shape the story? Absolutely. Consistently interesting and funny? Also absolutely, this Williams guy sure knows how to write, you may be surprised to know.
In the end, I'll say that these memoirs give me a better impression of just how complicated the man was, then a regular biography probably would have. You won't always love him, or even like him, while reading this, but you'll know him.
