Synopsis "The Man Who Would Be King"

One of Rudyard Kipling's best short stories, "The Man Who Would Be King" has a fabulous enough plot to captivate even the most avid movie-goer. Told from the point of a view of a narrator who sounds suspiciously like the author himself, "King" is an exciting tale about two adventurers - or con men, depending on your kindness - who have hatched a plan to seek their fortune in Afghanistan, where they will set themselves up as kings. Just as Kipling provided an intimate window into Imperial India, his "King" blends fiction with the British perspective on an exotic and inestimable Middle East.

View Author's Page
Bombay, (1865-1936). Rudyard Kipling escribió novelas, poemas y relatos ambientados principalmente en la India y Birmania durante la época de gobierno británico. Kipling fue un escritor prolífico y popular, y su literatura gira siempre en torno a tres ejes: el patriotismo, el deber de los ingleses de llevar una vida de intensa actividad y el destino de Inglaterra, llamada a ser un gran imperio. Su insistencia en este último aspecto era sin duda un eco del pasado victoriano, y perjudicó gravemente su reputación como escritor, a pesar de que fue el primer autor británico galardonado con el Nobel de Literatura.
