Beskrivning

Rudyard Kipling has been one of the most loved and the most loathed of English writers. This is a study of the forces and influences that shaped his work - including his unusual family background, his role as the laureate of empire, the deaths of two of his children - and of his complex relations with a literary world that first embraced and then rejected him, but could never ignore him.
