Rudyard Kipling, the master storyteller of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, captivated the world with his vibrant tales set against the exotic backdrops of British India and beyond. His timeless works, such as "The Jungle Book" and "Kim," overflow with vivid characters and thrilling adventures, painting a picture of colonial life filled with both beauty and peril.
Join Keith as he talks about his life, his writing, which was infused with the ethos of the British Empire, and how the poem "if" continues to inspire, and how "The White Man's Burden" continues to shock.
