'Hugely entertaining' GUARDIAN

The fascinating life story of professional cricketer Kevin Pietersen, MBE, from his childhood in South Africa to his experiences as one of the leading lights in the world of international cricket.

Kevin was dropped from the England squad in February 2014, seemingly calling time on an international career that began nearly ten years earlier. The decision puzzled many observers - although the England team had failed miserably in the Ashes tour of 2013-14, Kevin was the tourists' leading run scorer across the series, and he remains the country's highest run scorer of all time across all formats of the game.

Kevin reveals all in his autobiography, telling the stories behind the many other highs and lows of his incredible career. Giving readers the full story of his life, from his childhood in South Africa to his experiences as one of the leading lights in the world of international cricket, KP is an autobiography that entertains and fascinates readers in equal measure.

Product description

Book Description

The incredible, bestselling autobiography of England's most colourful cricketer.

From the Back Cover

'The book that rocked the English cricketing world'
Mail on Sunday

When Kevin Pietersen was dropped from the English cricket team at the beginning of 2014, fans were left scratching their heads. KP was the team's leading run-scorer during that winter's Ashes tour; the highest run-scorer in English cricketing history, in fact. So why did his face no longer fit?

In his explosive autobiography, KP provides his take on what the answer to that question might be. As well as reliving some of the pivotal moments in his career and offering an insight into what drives him to play the way he does, he provides a fascinating look behind the closed doors of an elite sports unit, and at the dynamics there that can either make - or break - a team.

For KP fans, it's a delight. Less of Pietersen's skills revealed more of troubles faced in English dressing room. Yet for those who know and follow kp, you can unserstand pretty clearly what the world saw and what kp experiences deep inside. Just like his batting, no grinding - everything flamboyant and in the face. Worth a read.

Reviewed in India on 26 December 2023

Nice style - the opening pages with 2014 when he was dropped from the side and goes back - so its almost like a film where the tension is built what happened to a talented player like KP - why he got dropped etc - one thing that was surprising why did ECB stick with andy flower for so long - key takeaways for me were
practice in nets needs to be taken more seriously than the actual match
role of mentor/coach/friends/team mates becomes crucial in determining our performance - given there is so much pressure from everywhere

3.0 out of 5 stars Interesting read..but a little too much of Flower
Reviewed in India on 3 September 2018

It is good to hear the perspective of a champion player and arguably the most popular English batsman in India. However at times the complaints get a little monotonous.
Might have dampened the negative tone a bit if something more about KP's relationships with family, other players and triumphs were written. A KP fan might have loved to know more about him and his good times with other players

KP has been honest. The book does hold you from start to finish. At some places you will find that he's gt gr8 sence of humour and at some you will think he has overdone by digging on A.Flower and M.Prior aka "Cheese". But, thats the way he is.

An absolute cracker! Must read for cricket fans. The most enthralling, breathtaking and amusing as well as shocking insiders he tells us about cricketing in England. One of the most straightforward and entertaining cricketer we got to see in this millenia! Sadly his career got to an early end but his innings will be really memorable. And now I've got hold of his commentary skills, he's an absolute amazing commentator, always switch on to the English commentary in whichever match he commentates.

Not a bad book at all. Truth to be told, you need to be a KP fan if you are gonna read this. There are lots of skeletons he opens up in this book - some are quite shocking if you have not followed English cricket all that well.

A great insight into the life of KP. I really hope he gets back into the england team after reading how awfully he got treated by the ECB and Flower. Fascinating to hear about the issues inside the changing room and behind the scenes which as a general member of the public we don't often hear about. i also didnt know the extent of kp injuries during his career. Of course it is all written from his perspective so can seem biased but my opinion on him has been changed hugely. He is a genuine cricketer who just wants to play at the highest level for his country. All those people calling him a mercenary for making money in the ipl need to wake up and smell the salt. Other nations have embraced the ipl and big bash like nz, aus, india and SA and its no wonder they performed so well in the world cup. We are still stuck in our old traditional ways and we have a lot of catching up to do. First things first put kp back in at 4 and get our batting line up looking exciting again. This is a must read for any cricket lovers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Intriguing
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 12 October 2014

A fantastic book that gives you the inside track into modern performance cricket still governed by stiff collars from another age. Also lies bare the epidemic of ECB leaking confidential material to the press and the bullying culture of the recent dressing room. Also cricket fans can now stop wondering why talented young players like Bopara were so inconsistent - they were hounded and picked on by senior players in the clique...it figures. Pietersen is a divisive figure but the conditions he describes and how badly he was managed shows how poor cricket administration and management is compared to other high profile sports. The vitriol he is exposed to simply for pointing out that in professional sports you don't all have to be best mates and that he shouldn't have to apologise for scoring 100 runs but then being out to a silly shot is ridiculous. His runs speak for themselves. If only Flower could have managed the asset and not judged the man.

The humour is also very good. The description of Big Cheese Prior cycling around New Zealand in his spandex made me laugh out loud!

Reviewed in Australia on 1 February 2015

'KP' finally gives the reader an insight of his story as we have heard him say in interviews. It was entertaining and boisterous reading about the cricket legends background and move to England as well as the colourful history of his relationships with team members, coaches and the ECB. However, a lot of complaining and repetitious hostility can be seen between KP and former coach Andy Flower which didn't need to be reiterated as much because the reader has got the point.

One thing you will be guaranteed, you won't get bored reading this book.

4.0 out of 5 stars Life Is Not A Flower For KP
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 15 May 2020
Verified Purchase
I would have given this book 3 and a half stars but had to make a decision so because I picked it up readily I plumped for four stars. Many of Kevin's gripes do seem to be justified and although he does moan all the way through possibly people like to hear negative things so maybe he just wanted to please and thought his book would sell better. He does complain about coach Andy Flower from start to end but I did not have a problem with that although there were some other aspects which seemed inappropriate. One example was when he stated the England team absolutely loathed the Australia team but a few pages later says the England cricket team were having a big party and the good old Aussies were also there to brighten the occasion. It also became apparent that all of his complaints against people always seemed to be of one ethnicity although he played in the Indian Premier League and Caribbean tournaments. People are people were ever you go is a very well known saying. He also did not really explain why the Racial Quota forced him to play for England rather than his clearly much beloved South Africa because he really should have played for South Africa and would surely have been a South African regular throughout his career. However it was certainly lucky for England they acquired his services even if being a true Springbok he could never quite give it 100% of everything for England. He does appear to an honest guy though and admitted some things which made him look a fool and I thought he was brave to expose and name in his view the England team bully boys. I would not nominate this autobiography as my favourite ever book but still worth reading to get an insight into Kevin Pieterson.
