Summary: One of the finest writers ever
Comment: Kipling is little appreciated today, and that's a shame, because he was one of the finest short-story writers the world has ever produced. The closest word I can find to describe his stories is "hynotic." Such an imagination...many of the stories are understated horror and fantasy: stories of talking trains, of wild rides that end up in hellish worlds, of frighteningly realistic curses by man-beasts. Some are truly puzzling, such as "The Gardener." Some are obviously (and disturbingly) autobiographical ("Baa Baa Black Sheep"). Kipling strikes a note few writers can: his stories can be enjoyed (and enjoyed immensely) by both children and adults. These are the kinds of stories that children love having read to them. They always clamor for more.

Summary: One of the best craftman in Literature
Comment: Ihave read one of the most deep tales, the title "the gardener". When i readed it came to my mind two words: fathe, hope, uncanny.

This tale awake in my a feeling, the atraction for the work of kipling,is magic, it surrounds your views with his views, his feelings with your feelings. All that happens is the presence of the author, this book, is not a simple book of tales, is the gate for a new worlds, a thousend of worlds, all with a new gravity and with brave life
