| Publisher Description: Set in the days of the British Raj, Rudyard Kipling's finest novel is the exciting and touching tale of an Irish orphan boy who has lived free in the streets of Lahore before setting out, with a Tibetan lama, on a spiritual quest. Kim later enrolls in the Indian Service and simultaneously embarks on an espionage mission of supreme importance. A thrilling climax in the Himalayas occurs when the two quests become entangled. Kim's search for identity is staged within one of the most magnificent and affectionate portrayals of Indian culture in literature. |
