Kim

Resume du livre

Kim, the poor orphaned son of an Irish soldier
stationed in Lahore, straddles both worlds. Neither wholly British nor
completely Indian, the young boy searches for his identity in the
country where he was born; but at the same time, he struggles to create
an identity for himself. Cunning and street wise, Kim is mature beyond
his thirteen years and learns to move chameleon-like between the two
cultures, becoming the disciple of a Tibetan monk while training as a
spy for the British secret service.<br>Far above the average adventure
story, Kim will captivate Kipling devotees as well as fans of tales
brimming with foreign intrigue and treachery.
