Evidence: | 'Finished reading "The Intimate Journals of Paul Gauguin". Very fresh mind - he at once joins the company of those whom we wish we could have met. Such a distinctive French book makes a Scot feel that he is rather a dog-collared dog. We cannot recall Mary Stuart without seeing the shadow of Knox at her back.' |
