The Man who would be King etc

The Man Who Would Be King is a brilliant and enchanting novella by Rudyard Kipling.

Critics have observed that the novel The Man Who Would Be King “is a meditation on the excesses of ambition and avarice.” The plot is absolutely intriguing and wild and takes the reader’s mind through a gripping mayhem of ambition and sad fall. Two British adventurers, Daniel Dravot and Peachey Tolliver Carnehan seek the help of the narrator who has been depicted as British Indian journalist and a correspondent of “The Northern Star”.
