Well first, I will believe it when I see it. And if I see it, I will
take it with a grain of salt. If there are tapes, who knows what is on
them? And who knows what is not on them, what he did not talk about?
And who knows what is left out and what is used in any book?
I honestly do not trust Dwina to be an honest appraiser of Robin's
life. I hope I am wrong. I just get the feeling she can be self
serving. Having said all that, I obviously do not know the woman and
you never know. But honestly, if it is a biography, how could you not
mention the public information that he had a long term affair that
resulted in a child, even if Robin did not mention it on the tapes? If
it is about his professional life and the dynamic between the brothers,
then that is a different situation, imo.
Yes, it is the mirror so who knows what the true story is. From
everything I heard, for instance, his estate was much more than what was
mentioned in the article. Yasmine
