A surprising and moving account of Shatner and Nimoy's friendship and career trajectories. If you're a Trekkie, or someone who is interested in the life of a gifted actor, this is a book for you. Shatner's writing is conversational and honest and you really feel the affection he had for Nimoy, may he RIP. ( ) Whatever complex puzzle their relationship may have been, Shatner gets to have the last word on his friendship with Leonard Nimoy in this ode to his life. If you are a Star Trek fan who has read Shatner's previous memoirs and the books written by Nimoy and other cast members of the show, you'll recognize many of the anecdotes interspersed throughout. The backbone of the book though is a fairly straightforward chronological run through Nimoy's CV, touching on all the shows, movies, art projects, and charitable works in which he was involved. He lived long and prospered. Shatner, with his warm voice and distinctive cadence that I've been listening to for most of my life, is one of my go-to authors for car-trip audiobooks. This one kept me alert and helped the many miles between Madison, Wisconsin, and Omaha, Nebraska, zip by quickly as I drove from 7:30 p.m. to 2 a.m. I still had 90 minutes left when I pulled into the driveway and finished them off over lunches this week. A lot of the material is verbatim from the Archive of American Television's Leonard Nimoy interview: http://www.emmytvlegends.org/interviews/people/leonard-nimoy I'm not certain what I was hoping for in this book; perhaps a bit of understanding of the relationship between Shatner and Nimoy? The book reads as though Shatner is sitting with the reader and just talking talking talking. The order is simple enough in that it tries to follow what was going on with both men during the years with some insights into what each was doing and sometimes thinking. Kind of like a he-said/she-said but told in a Shatner-says "mode". I wanted to read through the book as quickly as I could but think the best way would probably have been with a bit of a break between chapters. In that fashion, re-reading som topics that get repeated would not have felt like it got in the way of the story's/stories' flow. (If anything made this book sometimes feel like a ramble it is during these points). I guess it would make a decent audio book, though. Did I learn a bit more about Nimoy? Yes. A bit more about Shatner? Not really. Did my opinions change about either of them as creators or men? Nope. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
