A Memoir Of My Former Self Av Hilary Mantel
<p><b>''A guide to the mind of one of the great English novelists of the last half-century'' Guardian</b><br><br><b>''Like hearing the voice of an old friend'' <i>Observer</i></b><br><br>As well as her celebrated career as a novelist, Hilary Mantel long contributed to newspapers and journals, unspooling stories from her own life and illuminating the world as she found it. This strand of her writing was an integral part of how she thought of herself. ''Ink is a generative fluid,'' she explains. ''If you don''t mean your words to breed consequences, don''t write at all.'' <i>A Memoir of My Former Self </i>collects the finest of this writing over four decades. <br><br>Mantel''s subjects are wide-ranging. She discusses nationalism and her own sense of belonging; our dream life flopping into our conscious life; the mythic legacy of Princess Diana; the many themes that feed into her novels - revolutionary France, psychics, Tudor England - and other novelists, from Jane Austen to V. S. Naipau
