Pressestimmen
That rare celebrity autobiography that's as entertaining as it is self-revealing, a genuinely fun read. "Dallas Morning News" Shatner makes you feel like he's sitting out on the balcony with you, sharing a cigar and waxing nostalgic. "The Oregonian" Shatner's sincerity, honesty, and heightened sense of humor all come across at warp speed in this entertaining memoir. "Publishers Weekly" Shatner has chosen to boldly go where his fans have never seen him go before, and it's an entertaining ride. "The Times (UK)" It is now Bill Shatner's universe--we just live in it. "New York Daily News" The book comes across as a lightly edited transcript of a torrent of dictation. . . . . an old-style entertainer's spiel and delightful 'lite' reading. "Booklist" Shatner's autobiography, "Up Till Now," [is] a humorous, self-deprecating look at his career, featuring some hilarious anecdotes, from his early days as a classical Shakespearean actor, touring in Canadian rep and gaining attention on Broadway, but not necessarily for the right reasons. "The Press and Journal (UK)" He has one of the best-known mugs in show business. "ABCnews.com" It feels like Shatner has always been there, well, as the book makes clear, that's because it's partly true. "The Orange County Register" Why did William Shatner cross the road? Why has he ever? To get to the other side. To see what's out there. To find out stuff and inhale the universe in his singular Shatnerian way. "Associated Press" A 77-year old man writing an autobiography with a title that hints his career has plenty more life in it is a gutsy move. But never count out Mr. Shatner, the greatest pop reinventor since Madonna hit the scene. "The Washington Times" Shatner reveals his foibles and failures with aplomb, exposes his exterior life in all its wild escapades. "The Chronicle Herald (Can.)" William Shatner is a multifaceted cultural icon. "Los Angeles Times "Jacket Copy" blog" Reads like having Shatner sit on the couch next to you, regaling you with endless stories and jokes as he meanders through the ups and downs of his life. "Canada.com" Not only are the characters he's played pop culture icons, but so is Shatner himself ... You never know what to expect. "National Post" It's all in there, including the fights with Star Trek cast members, the third wife's drowning and the subsequent painful inquiry by police, the triumphs, and the personal tragedies. "Parade Magazine""Praise for "Leonard""Shatner takes readers behind the nonemotive Vulcan visage to reveal the poet, photographer, devoted stage actor, recovering alcoholic, and formidable listener who was his friend. A fond remembrance of Leonard Nimoy by one who knew him like no other." "Kirkus Reviews""""Touching on Nimoy s other pursuits, including his photography, poetry, writing, and directing, Shatner offers up a lovely and moving tribute to his beloved friend." "Booklist" Essentially a traditional biography, but one that is filtered through the prism of its author s friendship with his subject. "The Washington Post""Trekkies will want this for the insider stories from Captain Kirk himself, but fans of candid, emotion-filled biographies will adore this account because it's a treasure trove of information."

Seit meiner Kindheit habe ich an Mr. Spock/ Leonard Nimoy einen Narren gefressen, deshalb habe ich lange überlegt, ob ich mir das Buch kaufen soll. Meine Neugier hat schließlich gesiegt.Vorab: Es gab für mich keine neuen Informationen/ Geschichten über Mr. Nimoy. Grob zusammengefasst geht es in dem Buch meiner Meinung nach hauptsächlich um William Shatners Versuche, seinem „Freund“ Leonard Nimoy in nichts nachzustehen.Leonard Nimoy hat Ende der 60er/ Anfang der 70er mehrere Alben veröffentlicht? William Shatner hat auch ein paar Songs aufgenommen. Leonard Nimoy hat den Pilotenschein gemacht... William Shatner auch. Leonard Nimoy hat Regie geführt? U. a. war er Regisseur der sehr erfolgreichen Teile 3 und 4 von StarTrek. William Shatner wollte nur bei StarTrek 5 mitmachen, wenn er Regie führen durfte. Der Rest ist Geschichte, StarTrek 5 war ein Flop. Das sind einige Beispiele.Außerdem gibt William Shatner mehrere der bekannten Anekdoten aus der Anfangszeit von Star Trek zum besten, u. a. die Geschichte mit dem Fahrrad, was nicht dazu führt dass man – wie Shatner es evtl. bezweckt – wohlwollend schmunzelt und denkt: so ein Schlawiener, sondern sich kopfschüttelnd/ augenrollend fragt, ob Leonard Nimoy eine Geduld wie ein Engel hatte, oder einfach keine Zeit, sich über die Kapriolen Shatners zu ärgern.Man kann Shatner zum Teil verstehen. Er sollte eigentlich der „Star“ von Star Trek sein, sein Co-Star läuft ihm aber um Längen den Rang ab, dumme Sache. Und so scheint es mir, dass William Shatner sich stets im Windschatten seines „Freundes“ versucht hat, zu profilieren, mit diesem Buch sogar über dessen Tod hinaus.So erfährt man indirekt doch etwas über Leonard Nimoy oder bekommt bestätigt, was man vermutet hat: dass er eine Seele von Mensch gewesen sein muss, sich öffentlich immer wohlwollend über William Shatner geäußert hat.Fazit: wenn man ein großer Fan von Leonard Nimoy ist und sich erhofft, etwas neues aus Shatners’ Buch zu erfahren, wird man enttäuscht.Wenn man kein expliziter Fan von Leonard Nimoy ist und allgemein die Serie Star Trek mag, erfährt man das ein oder andere Neue über einen sehr interessanten Mann, der nicht "nur" einen der bekanntesten und beliebtesten Science Fiction Charaktere Jahrzehntelang verkörpert hat, sondern auch viele andere Talente hatte.
Der Hintergrund hinter der Entstehung des Kultes Star Trek und der Freundschaft zweier Männer die unterschiedlicher nicht sein könnten. Seit Kindertagen bin ich Fan der Serie. Das Buch "Leonard" habe ich mir gekauft um mehr über die Männer hinter den Kulissen zu erfahren.Es ist sehr lesenswert.Die Geschichte und die Lebenslinien von Leonard Nimoy und William Shatner werden durch Shatner und seinen Co Autor David Fisher sehr detailliert und ausführlich beschrieben. Es werden keine Details ausgelassen.Auch der Einfluss der Beiden auf den Kult Star Trek der nicht nur in Amerika sondern auch in Europa seid Jahren ohne Nachlass "wütet" wird durch dieses Buch klarer.Ich kann es nur empfehlen.Die "Large Print Edition" ist sehr gut. Selbst bei schlechten Lichtverhältnissen macht es noch Spass zu lesen.
....schön, einfach schön,- zumindest für Fans. Neue Informationen gibt es eigentlich nicht, aber es ist ein würdiger Abschied und W.S. weiß genau, wie man mitreißt.
Es ist sehr spannend und gewáhrt einen Einblick in die Gedankenwelt von WIlliam Shatner und Leonard Nimoy. Man kann viel daraus über das Leben und die Menschen lernen.l
Ich habe das Buch quasi in einem Zug durchgelesen, obwohl ich kein all zu großer Star Trek Fan bin. William Shatner ist es mit Hilfe von David Fisher gelungen, einen fesselnden, rührenden und sehr menschlichen Rückblick auf Leonard Nimoy zu verfassen. Dabei verliert er sich nicht in Details sondern bringt die Kindheit am Rande von Boston genau so Stück für Stück ans Licht wie die ersten Jahre der darbenden Schauspielerei, die Star Trek Zeit oder das Leben nach "To go boldly where no man has gone before.". Alles eingebetet in Geschichten rund um das persönliche Verhältnis - die anfängliche Konkurrenz, die entstehende Freundschaft, die tiefe Verbundenheit und den letzten Streit, der bis zum Tode Nimoys ungeregelt blieb. Hier spürt man den tiefen Schmerz Shatners und wer auch nur über einen Hauch Empathie verfügt wird auf den letzten Seiten Schwierigkeiten haben, nicht selbst in Tränen auszubrechen."Leonard: My Fifty-Year Friendship with a Remarkable Man" ist eine tolle Form der Biographie. Kein glorifizierender Nachruf einen journalistischen Bewunderers, sondern ein Rückblick auf und in Freundschaft. Toll geschrieben, nie langweilig und mit genau der richtigen Prise Augenzwinkern, die man von James T. Kirk erwarten darf, wenn sein 1. Offizier von Bord geht. Großartig.
