Born in Bombay, India, his experiences in the British Raj profoundly influenced his writing, particularly in works like The Jungle Book, which explores themes of survival, belonging, and morality. Kipling received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1907, making him one of the first English-language authors to earn this prestigious award.
