Life's Handicap: Being Stories Of Mine Own People is a collection of short stories written by the famous English author Rudyard Kipling. The book was first published in 1891 and contains a total of 27 stories. The stories are set in India and revolve around the lives of ordinary people, particularly those who are marginalized and disadvantaged in society. The characters include soldiers, farmers, beggars, and other members of the lower classes. The stories deal with themes such as poverty, caste discrimination, and the struggle for survival in a harsh environment. Kipling's writing style is characterized by its vivid descriptions of the Indian landscape, its people, and their customs. The stories are also notable for their use of dialect and local slang, which adds to their authenticity. Overall, Life's Handicap is a compelling and thought-provoking collection of stories that offers a glimpse into the lives of ordinary people in colonial India.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
