Kim

Rudyard Kipling’s novel “Kim” is a captivating tale set against the vibrant backdrop of British-occupied India in the late 19th century. Published in 1901, the novel follows the adventures of the titular character, Kimball O’Hara, an orphaned boy of Irish-British descent who grows up in the bustling streets of Lahore. Raised as a street urchin, Kim becomes embroiled in espionage, as he is drawn into the Great Game—the political intrigue between Britain and Russia. What sets “Kim” apart is not only its riveting narrative but also Kipling’s keen observations of the cultural and social dynamics of India. The novel provides a nuanced exploration of identity, spirituality, and the collision of Eastern and Western cultures during a period of significant historical change. --- Product Features --- Weight: 0.23, KG Written_By: Rudyard, Kipling Publisher: Fingerprint!, Pub Book Type: Fiction Categories: Classic, Fiction Best For: Well-crafted, prose|deep, themes|and, enduring, relevance Ages: 16+ Binding: Paperback Edition: 1, August, 2018 Isbn: 978-9388144322 Language: English Pages: 356 Printing Remarks: Imported Dimension: 20.3, x, 25.4, x, 4.7, cm Total Pages: 356
