Publication details: Ernest Benn,[1931,]
Rare Book
The author, on the verge of turning forty, writes in the guise of a septuagenarian in order to make the present speak a little further to the recent past. Her comments turn much on the world on the theatre (she was as the title-page mentions, "Rachel" of Punch), but also refer to the Bright Young People ('all cry and no wool') and the fight for suffrage in which she had been involved (which 'I see now, was our Eton and Oxford, our regiment, our ship, our cricket-match').
