Description
Kim by Rudyard Kipling is an epic tale of friendship and self-discovery set against the vibrant backdrop of India's imperial era. Against the stunning landscape of Lahore, two men embark on a quest that will test their loyalties and challenge their very identities.
At its heart is Kim, a young boy born in India to a white father, who finds himself torn between his desire to participate in the Great Game of imperialism and his spiritual connection to an old ascetic priest. As they navigate this complex web of loyalty and duty, Kipling masterfully captures the beauty and turmoil of India's exotic landscape.
This Penguin English Library edition brings together two of the most compelling elements of Kipling's work: a sweeping narrative of adventure and a profound exploration of the human condition. With its richly detailed setting and nuanced characters, Kim is a gripping and thought-provoking read that will linger long after the final page has been turned.
