'She is a delightful girl to give lunch to; very pretty, very decorative; drawing the eyes, admiring or envious, of all the other lunchers, but not (and this, I think, is her most charming characteristic) - not showing any consciousness of it: devoting herself with all her heart (if any), her soul (probably none) and her eyes (forget-me-not-blue) to her companion.'
So strangely caustic (albeit funny) for Milne!

Milne's "To the Reader" is enchanting. Dedicating the work to the reader, after anticipating her disappointment at the book being one of short stories, is darling and gallant. Also this: "completely revealing titles which are both attractive and as yet unused are hard to come by...one should expect A TABLE NEAR THE BAND to offer a view of other tables, at each one of which some story may well be in the making."
