| Quotation | I got Lawrence's Twilight in Italy in Darjeeling and now, here in Madras, a little way down Mount Road, a thin volume of his Selected Poems (edited by J. Reeves). I'm curious to read again after so many years his "Virgin Youth" when today I have seen the Shiva lingam at Mahabalipuram, standing black and alone at the edge of the ocean, washed by spray of great waves breaking on the rocks. |
