About this audiobook

Der Waisenjunge Kim hält sich im Indien der 1890er-Jahre mit Botengängen und Betteln über Wasser. Als er auf einen buddhistischen Mönch trifft, begibt er sich mit ihm auf eine abenteuerliche Reise entlang der Grand Trunk Road. Doch auf den quirligen Straßen Indiens werden die beiden voneinander getrennt. Kim gelangt auf eine englische Schule und tritt anschließend als Spion in den britischen Geheimdienst ein. Seinem wahren Meister jedoch hält er lebenslang die Treue. Mit dem Waisenjungen Kim hat Kipling einen Herumtreiber voller Charme und Witz geschaffen und zugleich seinem Heimatland ein ewiges Denkmal gesetzt.

Rudyard Kipling

Rudyard Kipling was born in India in 1865. After intermittently moving between India and England during his early life, he settled in the latter in 1889, published his novel The Light That Failed in 1891 and married Caroline (Carrie) Balestier the following year. They returned to her home in Brattleboro, Vermont, where Kipling wrote both The Jungle Book and its sequel, as well as Captains Courageous. He continued to write prolifically and was the first Englishman to receive the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1907 but his later years were darkened by the death of his son John at the Battle of Loos in 1915. He died in 1936.
