Buch. Condición: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - A novel of movement, identity, and empire, Kim follows the journey of a young boy across the landscapes of British India, combining adventure with observation of culture and place.The narrative centres on Kimball O'Hara, an orphaned boy navigating the cities, roads, and rural regions of India. Moving between different communities and environments, Kim develops relationships that shape both his experience and his understanding of identity. His travels bring him into contact with a wide range of figures, from soldiers and officials to holy men and travellers, creating a layered view of the society through which he moves.Alongside its episodic structure, the novel incorporates elements of political intrigue and intelligence work, often referred to as the 'Great Game.' These elements are balanced with a sustained attention to setting, language, and the rhythms of daily life. The result is a work that combines narrative movement with detailed observation, reflecting both the conditions of the period and Kipling's approach to storytelling.
