Description

Selected by the Modern Library as one of the 100 best novels of all timeFilled with lyrical, exotic prose and nostalgia for Rudyard Kiplingโ€™s native India, Kim is widely acknowledged as the authorโ€™s greatest novel and a key element in his winning the 1907 Nobel Prize in Literature. It is the tale of an orphaned sahib and the burdensome fate that awaits him when he is unwittingly dragged into the Great Game of Imperialism. During his many adventures, he befriends a sage old Tibetan lama who transforms his life. As Pankaj Mishra asserts in his Introduction, โ€œTo read the novel now is to notice the melancholy wisdom that accompanies the native boyโ€™s journey through a broad and open road to the narrow duties of the white manโ€™s world: how the deeper Buddhist idea of the illusion of the self, of time and space, makes bearable for him the anguish of abandoning his childhood.โ€
