Ürün Tanıtımı

With a newIntroduction by Cedric Watts, Research Professor of English, University ofSussex. The diverse tales selected for this volume display the astonishingvirtuosity of Rudyard Kipling's early writings. A Nobel prize-winner, Kiplingwas phenomenally productive and imaginative, displaying a literary mastery ofidioms, technology and technical terms, exotic locations, and social range. Hegained immense popularity, becoming (as these stories indicate) theknowledgeable spokesman for a wide public. Later, although Kipling's right-wingviews increasingly incurred hostility, his creativity remained formidable. Inthis rich collection, we encounter bold realism, poignant nostalgia, darkcomedy, the vividly horrific, the exuberantly fanciful and the disturbinglyuncanny.
