One of Rudyard Kipling's best short stories, The Man Who Would Be King has a fabulous enough plot to captivate even the most avid movie-goer. Told from the point of a view of a narrator who sounds suspiciously like the author himself, King is an exciting tale about two adventurers - or con men, depending on your kindness - who have hatched a plan to seek their fortune in Afghanistan, where they will set themselves up as kings. Just as Kipling provided an intimate window into Imperial India, his King blends fiction with the British perspective on an exotic and inestimable Middle East.
