br. Questo libro è per tutti gli amanti di Kim, il capolavoro con cui Ruyard Kipling celebrò la vita del subcontinente indiano, il "fardello dell'uomo bianco" imperiale e inglese, il duello fra la Corona e lo Zar nel "Grande Gioco", nome reso celebre proprio da lui, per il controllo dell'Asia centrale. Affascinato sin dall'adolescenza da questo strano racconto di un ragazzino orfano e del suo reclutamento nell'Indian Secret Service, Peter Hopkirk ripercorre le tracce di Kim nell'India di Kipling per vedere quanto di esse rimanga e dove portino. Rispetto a un eroe di finzione si tratterebbe di una ricerca vana, ma Kim è molto più di un romanzo inventato, perché fu ispirato da figure e luoghi reali che rendono impercettibile il confine fra verità e immaginazione. Libro di viaggi e insieme detective story letteraria, il libro di Hopkirk riporta alla luce le ombre di un passato pieno di intrighi e di colpi di scena, combina una sorprendente erudizione con una qualità di narratore, e ci consegna un'immagine indimenticabile dell'India di ieri, dell'India di sempre.
