"If-" is a timeless classic, a masterpiece about keeping your balance in a topsy-turvy world and maintaining personal integrity. A phenomenal poem by English Nobel laureate Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936), written circa 1895 as a tribute to Leander Starr Jameson, it is a literary example of Victorian-era stoicism.

Era il 1902 quando Rudyard Kipling pubblicò questa serie di racconti per l'infanzia, nei quali il tema ricorrente è la fantasiosa origine di alcuni animali, ma anche della scrittura. Perché la pelle del rinoceronte ha quelle grosse grinze? Perché l'elefante ha il naso lungo? Domande curiose e buffe, alle quali, molto seriamente, l'autore risponde con invenzioni strabilianti, capaci di trasportare in mondi fantastici anche il lettore adulto, lasciandolo piacevolmente divertito.

Wer kennt nicht den Wolfsjungen Mogli und seine Freunde, den klugen Panther Baghira und Balu, den schläfrigen braunen Bären, oder die Pythonschlange Kaa und Moglis größten Feind, den Tiger Schir Khan? Spätestens seit Walt Disneys wunderbarem Zeichentrickfilm ist Kiplings Abenteuergeschichte eines der populärsten Kinderbücher der Welt. Gerade diese scheinbare Bekanntheit aber lenkt den Blick von dem literarischen Meisterwerk ab, das wie kein zweites die Exotik des Dschungels und die Faszination Indiens beschwört.

President Teddy Roosevelt extolled the book in his essay "What We Can Expect of the American Boy", praising Kipling for describing "in the liveliest way just what a boy should be and do." One of Kipling’s greatest adventure stories.

Rudyard Kipling's timeless story re-imagined as a gangland coming-of-age fable. In this radical radio reboot, Kipling's family classic is given a darker twist and reimagined in the concrete jungle of present-day India. Born in a tenement block in Mumbai, orphan boy Mowgli is brought up by the Wolves, a gang of tough, streetwise petty criminals, and quickly learns how to survive in that world. But when the villainous politician Tiger Khan threatens his life, two residents of the block, the 'black panther' Bagheera and the 'bear' Baloo, offer to help him escape.

The story of the man-cub Mowgli who is raised by wolves in the Indian jungle, guided by his mentors Baloo the bear, Bagheera the black panther and the ancient python Kaa, and who confronts his arch-enemy Shere Khan the tiger, is one of the greatest literary myths ever created. Mowgli's adventures are juxtaposed with other animal stories set in the British Empire, ranging from the heroic battle of 'Rikki-tikki-tavi' and the Himalayan pastoral 'Purun Bhagat' to the drama of survival in 'The White Seal'.
