If – A Poem by Rudyard Kipling
Orwell wrote an essay about Kipling[1] that might be worth reading if you want to know about more about him. Orwell's take:"Kipling is a jingo imperialist, he is morally insensitive and aesthetically disgusting. It is better to start by admitting that, and then to try to find out why it is that he survives while the refined people who have sniggered at him seem to wear so badly."[1] https://www.orwellfoundation.com/the-orwell-foundation/orwel...
