Kim is Rudyard Kipling's story of an orphan born in colonial India and torn between love for his native India and the demands of Imperial loyalty to his Irish-English heritage and to the British Secret Service. Long recognized as Kipling's finest work, Kim was a key factor in his winning the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1907.

Carta de amor a la India

El Lazarillo de Tormes en la India colonial. Un retrato vívido de la cultura y gentes del subcontinente indio. Tal vez leído con ojos de hoy se aprecien trazas de colonialismo pero situada en su contexto es toda una oda al país.

Review of 'Kim' on 'Goodreads'

I could honestly read 100 issues of Kim & Kim and still be as in love with it as I was when I read #1

The colouring, the art, the characters, the relationships between all of them: I love it all.

This definitely felt like it was set up for another arc, and didn't feel like a definitive ending at all, but we won't get it until summer, almost a full year after this arc wrapped up. (All I know so far is that it's subtitled Love Is A Battlefield, but I'm super pumped)

Just give me more Magdalene. I need to see my queer faves being badass.
