First edition of Kipling's very rare second book; the "two writers" of the title were Kipling and his sister Alice ("Trix"). Of the 39 poems, mostly "echoes" or imitations of well-known poets, 32 are ascribed to Kipling and 7 to his sister. First published in Lahore in August 1884, the volume appeared when Kipling, then 18 years old, had been living in India for nearly two years. It was printed by the Civil and Military Gazette Press, where Kipling served as sub-editor, and he personally oversaw its production. In December 1883, Kipling's mother brought his 15-year-old sister, Trix, from England to join him. Together, they engaged in a series of literary experiments and playful compositions, producing a substantial collection of poems-primarily parodies of well-known poets-by the spring of 1884. Encouraged by their efforts, Rudyard published a selection of these works in August of that year under the title Echoes, by Two Writers. The Poems: Echoes: Introduction 1. A Vision of India (Rudyard Kipling) 2. The City of the Heart (Rudyard Kipling) 3. The Raiyat at Home (Rudyard Kipling) 4. Children of Nature (Alice MacDonald Fleming, 1884) 5.
