The Naulahka


Book Description

Kate Sheriff, a young American woman, knew without a shadow of a doubt what her calling was. She was to move to India where she would dedicate herself to improving the condition of Indian women. In her ensuing struggle to lay aside her favored Western lifestyle, and her adjustments to life in the Indian subcontinent, Kipling presents east and west side by side and reveals the complex, often tangled nature of the two.

The Naulahka


Book Description

"Naulahka" is the name Kipling gave to his home in Brattleboro, Vermont, though the Naulahka of the book title refers to a most precious jeweled necklace. It is also a story he wrote with a co-author, Wolcott Balestier, a Brattleboro man, and Kipling's brother-in-law. Balestier died of typhoid shortly after they began the collaboration, so what remains is mostly Kipling.
