À propos de cet audio

 Journey through the lens of Nobel Prize-winning author Rudyard Kipling as he explores the USA, Canada, Japan, and Egypt in Letters of Travel. This collection features three captivating books, including From Tideway to Tideway, which chronicles his travels across North America and Japan, alongside Letters to the Family and articles on Egypt first published in Nashs Magazine. Kipling, an Englishman raised in India, offers a unique outsiders perspective—both candid and sharp-witted—infused with deep humanity. His observations invite diverse interpretations; some may find echoes of late 19th and early 20th-century imperialism, while others may detect a playful, insightful gaze that reveals shared humanity among cultures. A particular paragraph exemplifies this duality, showcasing Kiplings ability to blend humor with poignant reflection. As you delve into these letters, youll discover Kipling as more than just a tourist; he is a keen observer who transforms the familiar into the extraordinary, reminding us of the rich tapestry of life encountered in every corner of the world.
