Rudyard Kipling, Andrew Rutherford
Plain Tales from the Hills
Paperback
(Oxford University Press March 15, 2009)
, Reissue edition
First published in 1888, Plain Tales from the Hills was Kipling's first volume of prose fiction. His vignettes of life in British India give vivid insights into Anglo-India at work and play, and into the character of the Indians themselves. Witty, wry, sometimes cynical, these tales with their brevity and concentration of effect are landmarks in the history of the short story as an art-form.
