hedgebirdSutcliff's essay of about 3000 words on the 1901 novel of the same name by Rudyard Kipling. It was written for a "revisiting my childhood fave" series in the journal Children's Literature in Education and included in the anthology Celebrating Children's Literature in Education edited by Geoff Fox, which you can see here on Internet Archive.
Some of this text is repurposed from the section on Kim in her 1960 monograph Rudyard Kipling, as you can see here, but there's a good deal of new material as well. Sutcliff had a family connection to India, mentioned in Blue Remembered Hills and "The Man Who Died at Sea": her maternal uncles spent their engineering careers there.
