Inhaltsangabe
Kipling's last collection of stories, written after the loss of his only son and when he was old and ill. Many reveal an obsession with pain and with the "breaking point" of a human being - the amount of pressure from physical and mental terrors that can be endured without a psychological collapse.

Limits And Renewals
Anbieter: Crappy Old Books, Barry, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: Good. Limits and Renewals (1994) by Rudyard Kipling ? Penguin Classics Sold with begrudging affection by Crappy Old Books Kipling?s Limits and Renewals is the literary equivalent of a whisky-soaked goodbye letter from the British Empire ? reflective, oddly charming, and slightly uncomfortable. First published in 1932, this later collection of stories and poems sees Kipling older, grumpier, and, dare we say, a little wiser. Expect ghostly happenings, medical mysteries, imperial oddities, and just enough colonial guilt to keep a postmodern reader twitching. This 1994 Penguin Classics edition features scholarly intros and footnotes that almost make you feel clever for reading it. The copy you?ll receive from us? Possibly thumbed-through, probably yellowing, and definitely still cheaper than anything involving a Kindle. Crappy Old Books: rescuing dusty classics so you don?t have to feel bad about judging them by their cover. Condition as new. THIS BOOK BEARS THE CRAPPY OLD BOOKS STAMP. IF THAT IS UNDESIRABLE PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS. THE STAMP MARKS WHICH IS USUALLY TO THE FRONT AND BACK INNER PAGES SAYS SOLD BY CRAPPY OLD BOOKS WITH WEB SITE URL. IT IN NO WAY DEMINISHED FROM THE READING. IF YOU WANT A PRISTINE BOOK, PLEASE FIND ANOTHER BOOK IN BETTER CONDITION SOMEWHERE ELSE. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 4133
