Kim is Rudyard Kipling's finest work. Kim himself is a resourceful lad who befriends a lama, an ageing priest; and both embark on a combined quest. Now controversial, this novel is a memorably vivid evocation of the life and landscapes of India in the late nineteenth century.
Kim becomes involved in the 'Great Game', undertaking espionage for the British rulers. Whereas Kim has an insatiable interest in the varied activities around him, the lama seeks redemption from the 'Wheel of Life'. This engrossing and moving novel, with its diversity of memorable characters, offers many insights into political, religious and social tensions.
