Blant nobelprisvinner Rudyard Kiplings mesterverk regnes Kim som det største. Denne magiske romanen forteller om den foreldreløse unggutten Kimball O'Hara som vokser opp som tigger i byen Lahore i India på slutten av 1800-tallet. Solbrent og støvete som han er, går han for å være innfødt, men han er sønn av en irsk soldat og en irsk mor, som begge døde under tragiske omstendigheter. Det er først når Kim blir venn med en gammel tibetansk Lama at livet hans blir forvandlet. Lamaen er på pilegrimsferd for å finne den hellige Pilens elv og bli forløst fra Tingenes hjul. Men ved siden av å bli lamaens utvalgte disippel blir Kim også opplært som agent for britenes hemmelige tjenester. I bakgrunnen utspiller nemlig «The Great Game» seg, det store spillet mellom det ekspansive tsarriket og det britiske imperiet i Sentral-Asia og det indiske subkontinentets nordområder. Men når Kim blir en brikke i spillet, står han snart overfor sitt livs største dilemma: Skal han velge sin følgesvenn eller sitt land? Oversatt fra engelsk og med forord av Knut Johansen
Kim Malthe-Bruun blev henrettet af nazisterne for sin deltagelse i frihedskampen, 21 år gammel – blot en måned før befrielsen. Hans dagbog og breve fra krigens år rummer en nysgerrighed, livskraft og kærlighed, der har hjulpet og inspireret generationer langt ud over hans egen. Med sine dagbogsoptegnelser fra livet på søen, breve til kæresten Hanne og den tunge afsked fra fængslet inden døden tegnede han ikke blot et portræt af Danmark under besættelsen, men gav et af de stærkeste vidnesbyrd i dansk litteratur om vunden og tabt ungdom.
