Sir, - I am anxious to find out who would constitute a fin de siecle person for our present century, and indeed how might one become one? Aubrey Beardsley apparently was one for the nineteenth century, according to Brian Fallon (The Irish Times, March 11th).
I know I probably wouldn't qualify, not being in the slightest bit artistic, consumptive or willowy, but are these the only qualifications? Where would I find out, just in case, and before it is too late? - Yours, etc.,
Blackrock, Co. Dublin.
