Thank you for sharing this. It was beautiful and provided me with another wonderful insight into Kipling's wonderful book. To think that Kipling from the past could provide some succour to such a brave person as Aung San; very touching.
all the best

It was published in The Sunday Times dated 16th June 1996. As I think she understands the point of the book very well, I thought that I would share it with you. I have scanned my slightly tatty copy of the article and attached it to this email as a JPEG image.
