About this audiobook

La protagonista di questa racconto dalle tinte futuristiche è una nave mercantile di nome Dimbula, perno di un insolito racconto che ha al suo centro le tematiche della tecnologia e del progresso scientifico. All'interno del racconto, Kipling si diverte a dar voce al ponte, ai chiodi, ai bagli, agli argani, in un gioco di dialoghi surreali che alla fine daranno vita a una voce sola: quella della nave Dimbula che troverà se stessa nel suo primo viaggio da Liverpool a New York.Joseph Rudyard Kipling (Bombay 1865 – Londra 1936) è stato uno scrittore e poeta britannico di numerosi classici della letteratura, tra cui "Il libro della giungla", "Kim" e "Capitani coraggiosi". Dopo un lungo viaggio per i mari del mondo, inizia a scrivere racconti e libri di avventura per bambini e ragazzi, diventando nel 1907 il più giovane vincitore del Premio Nobel per la Letteratura. Autore prolifico di poesie, romanzi e racconti - molti dei quali di ambientazione indiana - le sue opere si contraddistinguono per lo spiccato talento narrativo e per l'impegno politico-sociale. Identificato successivamente come il cantore dell'imperialismo britannico, è possibile constatare oggi come Kipling non si sia, in realtà, limitato a esaltarne gli ideali, ma abbia articolato questi in un ricchissimo immaginario, senza mai perdere di vista i lati più controversi del dominio coloniale.

Rudyard Kipling

Rudyard Kipling (1876-1936) was one of the most popular writers of the late-19th and early 20th centuries. A novelist, short story writer, poet and journalist, Kipling was born in Bombay (now Mumbai), India while the country was still under colonial rule. Much of his fiction is set in and inspired by the land of his birth.He is best known for his the two novels of the Jungle Book series as well as the books Kim, Captains Courageous, the collection of Just So Stories and his many works of short fiction, which includes Rikki-Tikki-Tavi and The Man Who Would Be King. His most famous poems include "Mandalay" (1890), "Gunga Din" (1890), "The White Man's Burden" (1899), and "If-"(1910). After being educated in Great Britain and returning to India, Kipling immediately began work in newspapers, banging out stories at a furious clip and, in whatever spare time he can, churning out a vast number of poems and short stories. He soon graduated to longer works and as he did so, his fame grew larger and larger. By 1907, his literary reputation had grown to such an astonishing extent that he was awarded the Nobel Prize in literature at the age of 41. He was not only the first English-language speaker to receive the prize but, to this day, Kipling remains the youngest writer ever to have received this award).Though not without controversy (for his pro-colonial views of India and Ireland), Kipling's works have never been out of print and his works have been adapted into dozens of stage, screen and television productions over the years.Kipling died of a perforated ulcer in 1936 at the age of 70 and his ashes are interred in "Poets' Corner" of Westminster Abbey in London.
