Download or read book Rudyard Kipling written by Andrew Lycett and published by Weidenfeld & Nicolson. This book was released on 2015-11-12 with total page 1011 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paragon of English virtues or racist imperialist? Andrew Lycett (acclaimed biographer of Ian Fleming) has returned to primary sources to tell the intricate story of a misunderstood genius who became Britain's most famous and highest earning author. Among the many new sources, Lycett has discovered previously unpublished letters that illuminate Kipling's crucial years in India, his first girlfriend (the model for Mrs Hauksbee of Plain Tales from the Hills), his parents' decision to send him back to England to boarding school; and in his adult life his use of opium, his frustrating times in London and the brief peace he found in America before the devastating loss of both his young daughter and, in the First World War, his son. Lycett also uncovers the extraordinary story of Kipling's great love for Flo Garrard, daughter of the crown jeweller, and unravels the complicated yet enthralling saga of the American family the Balestiers, and of Carrie Balestier who became Kipling's wife. This biography is full of new material on Kipling's financial dealings with Lord Beaverbrook, his friendships with T.E. Lawrence, the painter Edward Burne-Jones and the Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin (who was his cousin).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From her thought-provoking All of Mississippi, Aint Mississippi, Brown appears to be up to snuff in coming out and saying whats on her mind. Her adept knowledge of the South and its history lends her a crown of credibility for the literature of reality that says, She just could not have made this stuff up! Snuff Jars and Jelly Glasses, a rich blend of narrative, flows with contemplative musings, reflective poetry, and amusing memoirs. With twinkles of her Southern charm and unique depictions of her beloved Mississippi, Brown delivers a superb, inspirational read, cleverly interlaced with comedy, tragedy, drama, and history of actual journeys and encounters with family and the local pioneers of Mississippis historic Sunflower Plantation, a place she knows like no other. Brown unfolds her anecdotes with crackerjack humor, yet with outspoken affection, even admiration, for those of a more simple mindset who are forever spouting uncanny fonts of profound wisdom with childlike simplicityby simply stating the obvious. Penned from an intuitive over-the-shoulder glance, she enchantingly lures us with hysterical and poignant perceptions that apply to all humanity seeking love, community, friendship, and freedom. Brown incites us to think about the past as we are reminded, again and again, that the issues of our past are indelibly inscribed on our present. Snuff Jars and Jelly Glasses strives to anchor usas elapsing time draws us backward, toward homein simple collections that can be devoured in one sitting, or nibbled in bits to make it last a while.
