Description - Kim by Rudyard Kipling
'Rudyard Kipling's masterpiece, and it's one of the dozen books I should most like to have written myself' Geoffrey Moorhouse
'No summary can do this marvellous, rich and unforgettable novel anything like justice' Philip Pullman
Kim is an orphan who earns his living begging on the streets of Lahore. One day he befriends an aged Tibetan Lama who, although content to live simply in India, is a rich and powerful abbot in his own country. When the Lama recruits Kim as a disciple and then funds his education at an English public school an adventure begins that will take the unlikely pair to the Himalayas on a thrilling journey of espionage and enlightenment.
'The greatest of all Kipling's books' E. M. Forster
