Rainy Days In London
Gray—that is the word for London. It all begins when you get
off the Calais-Dover ferry, and look about with wondering gaze at
the untidy English landscape with its hard, uneven black earth,
cluttered "with slag-heaps, all null and void, gray-cold as death.
Dampness is everywhere: it seeps and works its way fungus-like
into clothes, brain and membrane, making the heart dimly sink and
diudder. It is only twenty miles across the Channel from France,
• but you have left behind the sunshine and the green rolling hills,
and have been suddenly submerged into this "pale mist-and-rain
enshrouded island. Another place, another world.
The grayness mounts when I leave the train at cavernous Vic­
toria Station, and plunge into the circling millions of the world’s
largest city. The first hours and days in London, after some weeks
of the charm and color of Paris’, is really a descent into dullness. The
heavy, square and flat-faced Victorian and Georgian architecture
of the houses is inconceivably hideous and blighting, like great bar­
racks walls, to the eye. The Englishman’s home may be his castle,
but there is not much to be said for it.
