Excerpt from Encounters: An Anthology From the First Ten Years of Encounter MagazineFinally, if I were to attempt to express what it is we have been about m a few words, I would put it this way: a review is a way of looking at the world, a record of glimpses and perspectives, concerned with the colour of things and not only with their meaning, with the visible surface Of life as well as its hidden patterns. A review is also a way of talking with the world, and, if worth listening to at all, alive with a sense of conversation, a feeling for the continuous dialogue which alone, in our days of agitated pictures and violent excitements, can sustain an imaginative interest in words and texts.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The artist Don Bachardy lived with Isherwood for more than 30 years and during Isherwood's last illness Bachardy drew him almost every day - sometimes several times a day. The 100 drawings from this period are published here alongside Bachardy's journal and an interview with Stephen Spender.

Faber&Faber

Offers both a subjective history of our times and a true poet's journal. Spender has preserved his memories of people and events, drafts of poems, plays and stories, vivid travel notes from all over the world, insights into painting and music, and the impressions of a life devoted to literature.

Stephen Spender, along with his friends W. H. Auden, Louis MacNeice and C. Day Lewis, rose to prominence in the 1930s, writing powerfully of the fear and paranoia of a continent heading towards war. By the time of his death in 1995 he had established a distinguished reputation as a poet, critic, editor and translator. This New Collected Poems, edited by Michael Brett, gathers seven decades of verse from Poems (1933) to Dolphins (1994) and the late uncollected work. Reordering the thematic principle of the 1985 Collected Poems, this edition returns to a book-by-book chronology and allows the reader to experience, for the first time, the full development and range of his career.
