In fact, he did both. Nowhere does he express his own ambivalence more strongly than in Kim , his rousing adventure novel of a young man of many allegiances. Kimball o’Hara grows up an orphan in the walled city of Lahore, India. Deeply devoted to an old Tibetan lama but involved in a secret mission for the British, Kim struggles to weave the strands of his life into a single pattern. Charged with action and suspense, yet profoundly spiritual, Kim vividly expresses the sounds and smells, colors and characters, opulence and squalor of complex, contradictory India under British rule.

Lawrence, Joseph Conrad, and George orwell. He also wrote the introduction and notes to the Barnes & Noble Classics edition of Edith Wharton’s The House of Mirth .

评分我终于理解为什么说吉卜林是典型的种族主义作家了,在他的笔下我第一次如此深刻地感受到赤裸裸的“白人至上主义”。此书中的基姆不就是《丛林之书》的狼孩吗?如果把印度人甚至亚洲人都当成动物的话。事实上在吉卜林心中也正是这样认为的吧。 书是非常精彩的,吉姆是一个爱尔兰...
