The City Of Dreadful Night

Written by Rudyard Kipling

Narrated by Tony Addison

Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936) was one of the most well known writers of the 20th century.

The City of Dreadful Night paints a gritty, dark picture of a hot summer night within a walled city in the Orient.

The narrator steps over sleeping people which mimic corpses — and vividly depicts what he sees, feels, and hears in this death-like city.

Rudyard Kipling

Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936) was an English author and poet who began writing in India and shortly found his work celebrated in England. An extravagantly popular, but critically polarizing, figure even in his own lifetime, the author wrote several books for adults and children that have become classics, Kim, The Jungle Book, Just So Stories, Captains Courageous and others. Although taken to task by some critics for his frequently imperialistic stance, the author’s best work rises above his era’s politics. Kipling refused offers of both knighthood and the position of Poet Laureate, but was the first English author to receive the Nobel prize.
