Mr. MICHAEL ROBERTS
THE MAN who tonight is to look into the future is young, a schoolmaster, a leader of a group of young Oxford poets who have, above all, their eyes turned from the past. They are conscious of the change of things ; of the inevitable fact that there is no looking back, no possibility of return.
In ' New Country ' and New Signatures ' Michael Roberts has collected the emotional expressions of young men like W. H. Auden , Cecil Day Lewis, and Stephen Spender. Their belief, their reaction to modern life, the impulses that move them, are expressed with admirable clarity ih the preface to ' New Signatures '. It is the writer of that preface who is to look into the future tonight.
