The book presents a vivid picture of India its teeming populations religions and superstitions and the life of the bazaars and the road.Two men - a boy who grows into early manhood and an old ascetic priest the lama - are at the center of the novel. A quest faces them both. Born in India Kim is nevertheless white a sahib. While he wants to play the Great Game of Imperialism he is also spiritually bound to the lama. His aim as he moves chameleon-like through the two cultures is to reconcile these opposing strands while the lama searches for redemption from the Wheel of Life. A celebration of their friendship in a beautiful but often hostile environment 'Kim' captures the opulence of India's exotic landscape overlaid by the uneasy presence of the British Raj.</p> Caedmon Audio Cassette hardcover

FIRST EDITION PRECEDING THE BRITISH EDITION. A handsome copy of Kipling's picaresque novel of India generally considered his masterpiece and one of his most popular works.<br> Kipling was born in Bombay grew up in London and traveled throughout the world. “Widely regarded as unofficial poet laureate he refused many honours; in 1907 he was the first English writer to receive the Nobel Prize†Oxf Comp to Eng Lit. Kipling was popular with common soldiers and his phrase “the white man’s burden†influenced and was used to justify the period of neo-colonialism up until the second World War. While he was and remains a controversial figure his children’s books do not have this quality and are considered some of his greatest achievements. KIM of course is considered the greatest representation of his talents and is considered by many to be Kipling"s greatest work of all. Doubleday, Page & Company hardcover
