The robin is a small bird with a distinctive ruddy breast, at once a national treasure and a bird with a global reputation. In this superbly illustrated account, Helen F. Wilson looks at many aspects of the cherished robin, from its status as a harbinger of seasonal change and icon of Christmas, to its place in fairy tales, environmental campaigns and scientific discovery.In moving between cultural and natural histories, Robin asks wide-ranging questions: how did the robin’s name travel the world? Why is the robin so melancholy? Who was Cock Robin? And how has the history of the colour red shaped the robin’s ambivalent associations and unusual origin stories?

On March 23rd 1996 at 6:58 in the morning I got up and went to the bathroom. As I returned to bed, strange words began popping into my head. I didn't want to forget them so I went into my son's bedroom, who was away at college, and recorded them. The room was dark. I didn't have my glasses on and I wasn't dressed. In the desk drawer I located a pen and paper and wrote down the words as they were presented to me. A little more than an hour later my hand was tired and there were fourteen handwritten pages. It was actually one hour and eight minutes. The following is a copy of those fourteen pages. I had a chance encounter with William Shakespeare. He informed me that the person behind his great literary achievements was Sonja Sjorgensen. She was known to me as Robin, a young lady who died early in life of fever. She communicated in writing with him through his hand. This happened to me. If this happened to you, what would do?

Dave Itzkoff har skrivit en heltäckande och imponerande biografi över Robin Williams, en av de mest folkkära och missförstådda skådespelarna i USA.Oavsett om det gällde hans rappa improvisationer i standup, genombrottsrollen i Mork & Mindy eller den gripande Oscarbelönade insatsen i Will Hunting var Robin Williams en unik och banbrytande skådespelare och komiker. Med en tungvrickande intensitet pratade han om kultur, politik och personliga insikter, samtidigt som han levde sig in i den ena karaktären efter den andra.Men som Dave Itzkoff visar i sin omfattande biografi fanns det samtidigt många motstridiga känslor och självtvivel bakom Williams begåvning. I såväl komedi som i hyllade filmer som Döda poeters sällskap, Good Morning, Vietnam, Fisher King, Aladdin och Välkommen mrs Doubtfire visade han sin stora förmåga att improvisera, ge liv åt sina karaktärer och använda humor för att närma sig svåra ämnen.Itzkoff lyfter också fram Williams problem med missbruk och depression, och att han i slutet av livet kämpade med en allvarlig åkomma som påverkade honom på ett sätt som hans fans inte visste om. Robin bygger på över hundra nya intervjuer med familj, vänner och kollegor samt omfattande research i olika arkiv, och ger en unik inblick i livet hos en artist vars arbete har varit en stor del hos många av oss. “Han har skrivit en bok om smärtan och allvaret i komedin, och hur hårt det tar på en känslig själ.” Amy Poehler “... en fulländad biografi över geniet Robin Williams, vars liv ger en ny bild av den amerikanska drömmens upp- och nedgångar.” Steve Martin “Robin ... har nu utkommit på svenska i skicklig översättning. Det är ett imponerande journalistiskt arbete ... den perfekta introduktionen till Robin Williams liv och verk.” Olof Eliasson, btj, nr 3 2025
