Immortal memories

-

My mother was one of the starstruck teenagers who went back again and again (well, four times) to see and hear Gwen Ffrangcon-davies in Boughton’s The Immortal Hour (June issue). She told me that at the time she and her friends were taking schoolleav­ing exams, and they would confront each other before an exam with Etain’s words when she is first challenged to remember her former existence in the Land of Eternal Youth: ‘I have forgotten all things:

I can remember nothing!’. Rosaleen Gregory, British Columbia, Canada.
