About this audiobook
Plain Tales from the Hills conjures up an intimate, evocative, often funny portrait of India. These unabridged observations of the British in India and Indian life were originally commissioned for The Civil and Military Gazette where Kipling worked as a journalist in the 1880s. Incredibly, Kipling write these famous and atmospheric pieces before he was twenty-two and they aptly illustrate his genius as a storyteller whose words and voice have stood the test of time. The raciness of his narrative, the astute detail and insight and the humour and vitality of his characters all contribute to ensure these stories remain as varied and memorable as India herself.
Reader Martin Jarvis is a multi-award-winning actor and narrator, famous for his audio work on the Just William stories and the stories of P.G. Wodehouse.
