Rudyard Kipling and Andrew Rutherford - Plain Tales From the HillsOxford University Press (UK) 2009 Paperback, 320pp. 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. Annotated. Some underlining of text on several pages. Back cover has foxed. (ISBN: 9780199538614). Good. NZD 11.50 [Appr.: EURO 6 US$ 6.67 | £UK 5 | JP¥ 992] Book number 1476758is offered by:
