Obra maestra de Kipling y una de las grandes narraciones de todos los tiempos, Kim cuenta la historia de Kimball O’Hara, a quien todos llaman Kim, huérfano de un soldado del regimiento irlandés. La acción transcurre en la India colonial británica, donde el joven y astuto Kim conoce a un lama tibetano que cambiará el curso de su vida. El lama se propone encontrar un río místico, y el muchacho decide acompañarle y guiarle, pero al mismo tiempo el viaje esconde una misión secreta, prefiguración de su futuro como miembro de los servicios secretos. Viaje iniciático y novela de aventuras, obra edificante donde las haya, Kim no ha dejado de deslumbrar a distintas generaciones de lectores desde que se publicara en 1901.

Work Description
Kim is Rudyard Kipling's story of an orphan born in colonial India and torn between love for his native India and the demands of Imperial loyalty to his Irish-English heritage and to the British Secret Service. Long recognized as Kipling's finest work, Kim was a key factor in his winning the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1907.
