Description:
|
|
This is the first ever Kipling anthology wholly made in India, featuring some lesser known but powerful stories and poems along with old favourites. This selection illumines the ‘lost’ India of the nineteenth century, which only Kipling can give back to modern Indians, and raises interesting echoes of the Raj.
About the Author
Rudyard Kipling: was he a vampire of the Raj or an Indian born in another skin, who upheld the British empire but gave his heart to the East? Khushwant Singh, celebrated columnist, author and ardent Kipling fan, knits this anthology with a fascinating introduction on the life of this controversial writer.
