Assisting him is the young and impressionable Rudyard Kipling, a lonely, impulsive man who dreams of becoming a writer. Kipling's literary pursuits have been dismissed as fanciful and foolish by his previous boss. But Robinson is different. He encourages the young 'Ruddy', allowing him greater creative freedom at the Gazette. As he becomes Ruddy's friend and confidant, Robinson gains access to intimate glimpses of the Kipling family, where he is smitten by Ruddy's sister Trix. Narrated by Robinson, The Kipling File is a moving story of doomed friendship and difficult love recounted against the powerful backdrop of Anglo-Indian life in a Punjab that has begun to stir with anti-colonial sentiment. Through his eyes unfold the turmoils that shaped the author of beloved classics like The Jungle Book and Kim. In Sudhir Kakar's luminous prose, Kipling emerges as a man of compelling contradictions-a mercurial genius whose immense talent was in pitched battle with his inner demons." --Goodreads. 500 $a Novel. 600 10 $a Kipling, Rudyard, $d 1865-1936 $v Fiction. 600 17 $a Kipling, Rudyard, $d 1865-1936. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00042357 650 0 $a British $z India $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Authors $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Indic fiction (English) $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Indic literature (English) $y 21st century. 650 7 $a Authors. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00821688 650 7 $a British. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00839044 651 7 $a India. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01210276 655 7 $a Novels. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01921742 655 0 $a Indic fiction (English) 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Literature. $2 lcgft 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317025748.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A2FFB9A4FFE911EBB6EAFDEE22ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
