Book cover
By: (1868-1936)

Bridge Builders by Rudyard Kipling is a thought-provoking and timely novel that delves into the complex issues of cultural differences and the power of communication and understanding. Set in colonial India, the story follows the construction of a bridge connecting two villages that are divided by religion and tradition.

The characters in the book are vividly drawn and the author captures the nuances of their interactions with sensitivity and nuance. Through the protagonist, an engineer named Strickland, Kipling explores the challenges and rewards of bringing together people from different backgrounds and beliefs. The obstacles Strickland faces in building the bridge mirror the misunderstandings and conflicts that can arise in real-life situations.

Overall, Bridge Builders is a compelling and insightful read that raises important questions about tolerance, cooperation, and empathy. Kipling’s prose is elegant and evocative, drawing the reader into the world of colonial India and the struggles of its inhabitants. This book is a compelling reminder of the power of human connection and the potential for positive change when people work together towards a common goal.

Book Description:
A tale of the revenge of the earth, in this case, specifically, Mother Gunga, Goddess of the River Ganga, against the men who confine her power, The Bridge Builders is also a tale of the death of the Gods as their place in the earth is taken by the things of science. A close description of the building of a bridge across the River Ganges, the tale also tells of a vision of the Gods in an opium dream like a dream in the mind of Brahma; and when Brahma wakes, the Gods die. Or do they?
