The Far Pavilions is an epic novel of British-Indian history by M. M. Kaye, published in 1978, which tells the story of an English officer during the British Raj. There are many parallels between this novel and Rudyard Kipling's Kim that was published in 1900: the settings, the young English boy raised as a native by an Indian surrogate mother, "the Great Game" as it was played by the British Empire and Imperial Russia. The novel, rooted deeply in the romantic epics of the 19th century, has been hailed as a masterpiece of storytelling. It is based partly on biographical writings by the author's grandfather, as well as her knowledge of and childhood experiences in India. It has sold millions of copies, caused travel agents to create tours that visited the locations in the book, and inspired

Die Geschichte ist eine Mischung aus Abenteuerroman, und Liebesroman und wurde weltweit bereits 15 Millionen Mal verkauft. (de)
  • Padiglioni lontani è un romanzo storico anglo-indiano firmato Mary Margaret Kaye, pubblicato per la prima volta nel 1978, che racconta la storia di un ufficiale inglese durante il Raj Britannico. Il romanzo, profondamente influenzato dai poemi romantici del XIX secolo, è considerato un capolavoro di narrazione. Esso si basa in parte sugli scritti biografici del nonno dell'autrice e in parte sulla sua vasta conoscenza dell'India, della sua storia, nonché sulle sue esperienze infantili in quel paese. Ha venduto milioni di copie, agenzie di viaggio hanno creato tour speciali per visitare i luoghi del libro, e ha anche ispirato un adattamento televisivo e una commedia musicale. (it)

  • Pabellones lejanos (título original en inglés, The Far Pavilions) (1978) es una novela de la autora británica M. M. Kaye, que narra la historia de un oficial inglés en el Raj británico. Hay muchos paralelismos entre esta novela y Kim de Rudyard Kipling que se publicó en 1900: la ambientación, el joven chico inglés criado como un nativo por una madre adoptiva india, "el Gran Juego" entre el Imperio británico y la Rusia imperial. La novela, firmemente anclada en la épica romántica del siglo XIX, ha sido alabada como una obra maestra de cómo contar una historia. Se basa, en parte, en los escritos biográficos del abuelo de la autora, así como su conocimiento de la India, con las experiencias de su infancia. Ha vendido millones de copias, provocado que agencias de viajes creen viajes que visita (es)
