The Jungle Book | Rudyard Kipling

And apart from any possible comparison, he is the most promising young man who emerged since ... my appearance. . This is how the great novelist Robert Louis Stevenson spoke about the young novelist at that time, Rudyard Kipling, after reading his short stories that he collected during his stay in India. But Kipling's name soared high after he wrote "The Jungle Book" which he published - and through it, various stories about the son of wolves Mowgli - over the course of two years 1894-1895 AD. And although Kipling's lifestyle was influenced by the Victorian era, he consistently and persistently championed the forces of nature and Mother Earth in his writings, as well as what India represented compared to Britain, forces that are more protective of humans, animals, and nature from the claws of civilization, which has repeatedly proven that it comes at a cost.
