In 1900 Kipling still had over 30 more years of writing in him. I wonder what La Galienne has to say. Then as now Kipling divided people.

I just read an article on La Galienne does not list this small old book on Kipling as one of his works-he wrote a lot of books! also poetry. Anyway thanks for the comment. Check out this memoir by La Galienne online-

Thank you for the link. I've flicked through the book. It has some cherishable stories about people who still matter to us- like Swinburne, Tennyson and Oscar Wilde....
