"THE ELDER STATESMAN"
»ir,-l sometimes wish all writings in The Listener could be signed. Impracticable, no doubt. But who, exhibiting neither style nor self, wrote previewing Eliot’s Elder Statesman? Who, with cared-for words has plucked the petals to show the budding of the playwright, his characters and their predicament, so briefly, so simply? A rare performance, wise and rather wonderful, spearheading in a well filled Listener, two precious hours in a well filled week. Not merely names. but works. Who
please?
