Anfa's message reminds me that I also read this book when researching the  
life of T S Eliot. It was in 1960 in Tangiers when Moran introduced WSC to 
the  poet and Winston didn't appear to know of him! I wonder what that says 
about our  man at this time of his life?
 
Having said that there had been certain elements of Eliot's  poetry 
appearing in his speeches. For instance "What we call the beginning is  often 
the 
end and to make an end is to make a beginning" [Little Gidding] is  very 
similar to "Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the  end. 
But it is perhaps the end of the beginning" [Speech made on 10 November  1942 
at Mansion House London]
 
Both he and Eliot died in 1965
