«Tu seras un homme, mon fils, suivi de Lettres à son fils» is the book of poems and letters by Rudyard Kipling, published by Mille et une nuits in paperback.
This poetry collection brings together Kipling's poem 'If' in its French version and the letters exchanged between the author and his son John in 1915, while the latter served at the front. The poem deals with childhood, autonomy and rectitude; the correspondence conveys the hope, anxiety and helplessness of a father.
The poem was originally published in English as 'If' in 1910. This French edition, translated by Jean-Luc Fromental, is number 204 in the La Petite Collection series.
For readers of classic poetry, interested in correspondence during the First World War and in Kipling's personal side.
Joseph Rudyard Kipling was an English journalist, novelist, poet and short-story writer. He was born in British India, which inspired much of his work.
