Rudyard Kipling has been described as 'one of the few complete
originals in English literature'. In his last work, Something of
Myself, he reflects on his life and the basis of his art. Yet
paradoxically this ostensibly autobiographical work (as an early
critic pointed out) actually discloses very little of himself.
Thomas Pinney's revealing edition now uncovers the extraordinary
extent to which Kipling's account of his life fails to match the
biographical facts, in a series of selections, omissions and
distortions. Illustrated with Kipling's own satirical drawings from
the manuscripts, and brought together with his other
autobiographical writings (some previously unpublished), this
fascinating book sheds new light on the intriguing relationship
between Kipling's life and work.
