Gone Girl

Andrew
Andrew is on page 222 of 368 of The Complete Stalky & Co.
This oddly jagged & irritatingly archaic 'coming-of-age' set of stories is a very difficult read.Kipling has some literary skill in describing adolescent bravado & blustering;a few of the adult characters ring true;but the overall effect is like listening to Edwardian songs or yellowed editions of 'Punch'...I don't really hear the voice, or get the joke!

Thought-provoking & provocative to so many shallow thinkers on the Left: but it's not right-wing but common-sensical!
