Sir Tim Waterstone

Sir Tim Waterstone is Britains biggest book tycoon, having built the Waterstone's empire that started with one small bookshop in 1982. He first opened up about his traumatic relationship with his father 4 years ago, at the age of 76, in his moving and inspiring memoir, 'The Face Pressed Against a Window'. There was so much more to hear about his story...luckily, there is a memoir! An incredible man, who after enduring relentless emotional abuse and rejection from his father growing up, went on to become one of Britain's most successful and admired businessmen.
