Synopsis

KIMBALL O'HARA JOURNEYS THROUGH COLONIAL INDIA, MEETING A MAGNIFICENT CAST OF CHARACTERS WHILE GRAPPLING WITH QUESTIONS OF IDENTITY, BELONGING AND SELF-DISCOVERY. Kimball O'Hara, an Anglo-Irish boy raised among Indians, knows every shortcut through the busy streets of Lahore and can talk his way out of almost any situation. He even catches the eye of the British Secret Service. But when he meets a gentle Tibetan lama searching for a sacred river, Kim's carefree life takes an unexpected turn. As they travel across the colourful landscapes of colonial India, Kim finds himself caught between two very different worlds: one of wisdom and self-discovery, the other of secret messages, hidden identities and dangerous missions. Brimming with unforgettable characters and situations, Rudyard Kipling's Kim invites young readers on a journey where every road holds a new surprise and every choice shapes a remarkable adventure. A timeless classic that continues to captivate readers generation after generation.
