Plain Tales from the Hills
Description:... Originally written for the Lahore Civil and Military Gazette when he was 21, Kipling's stories tell of 'heat and bewilderment and wasted effort and broken faith'. He writes brilliantly and hauntingly about the barriers between the races, the classes and the sexes; and about innocence, not transformed into experience, but implacably crushed. This powerful collection includes The Other Man, The Arrest of Lieutenant Golightly and The Bronckhorst Divorce.
