We handled it, kid.

In his sincere and long-awaited memoir, the two-time Oscar winner and holder of the Emmy, BAFTA and many other awards, Sir Anthony Hopkins recounts his difficult childhood, his family, his hard struggle with alcoholism, his uncompromising character and his failed relationships, but also his brilliant career in film and theatre, his colleagues, Hollywood, painting and music, and his awards and honours. The unvarnished and moving story of an artist who for years has inspired both audiences on stage and on small and big screens, as well as lovers of music and fine art.

The man whom not even his own parents believed in can today calmly say that he has made a success of his life. And how!
