"Plain Tales from the Hills" is the first collection of short stories by Rudyard Kipling, published in 1888. The book consists of 40 stories, with 28 of them initially published in the Civil and Military Gazette in Lahore, British India. The title of the book refers to the deceptively simple narrative style and the setting of many stories in the Hill Station of Simla. The tales provide sketches of various aspects of life in British India.
The collection introduces characters like Mrs. Hauksbee, Strickland the policeman, and the Soldiers Three. Jorge Luis Borges was inspired by the quality and conciseness of these stories. Some characters from the collection reappear in Kipling's novel "Kim." Overall, "Plain Tales from the Hills" is a significant work in Kipling's literary career, showcasing his talent for storytelling and capturing the essence of life in colonial India.
