    About this audiobook

    As a general rule we are a trusting lot. You say something and, whilst I might disagree, I believe you are acting in good faith. Of course this may be just the beginning of a ruse. If I trust you I might let down my guard, I might seek to share and to create a bond between us. But, if you can’t be trusted, if you have an ulterior motive I might lose out.

    In the hands of authors such as Maxim Gorky, Ella D’Arcy, Rudyard Kipling, Ivan Turgenev and may others reality may not be what it quite seems.

    Rudyard Kipling

    Rudyard Kipling war der große Chronist Indiens zur Zeit des britischen Empires. Kein Zweiter beschrieb in seinen Romanen, Reportagen und Kurzgeschichten die Fremde des Subkontinents lebendiger und spannender. Joseph Rudyard Kipling (Geb. 30. Dezember 1865 in Bombay; Gest. 18. Januar 1936 in London) war ein britischer Schriftsteller und Dichter. Zu seinen bekanntesten Werken zählen "Das Dschungelbuch" und der Spionage-Roman "Kim". Kipling gilt als wichtiger Vertreter des Kurzgeschichten-Genres und als hervorragender Erzähler. 1907 erhielt er als damals jüngster und erster englischsprachiger Schriftsteller den Literaturnobelpreis, den Rekord als jüngster Literaturnobelpreisträger hält er bis heute. Verschiedene andere Ehrungen und eine Erhebung in den Adelsstand lehnte er ab.
