By that time indications of the way in which the War was going to influence writers were coming through. The main interest lay in whether or not the War would break the domination over writing which the Left-wing Group of Auder, Ralph Bates, Isherwood, MacNeice, Spender, Upward, and the rest, and by virtue of his hangover influence, T. S. Eliot, had held for the last ten years or so. The chief characteristics of this loosely defined group can be summarised. They arc applicable not so much to individual writers but to the spirit emanating from the group as a whole. First, there was the fetish of realism or factual authenticity. This produced a situation in which miners, dockyard workers, factory workers had the monopoly of writing about their callings and were prohibited from writing about anything else, thus dispensing with the need for imagination. Writing became a documentation of selected incidents in the authors life or the people known to him. The result as displayed in New Writing and similarly inclined periodicals was lacking in richness, often flat anduninteresting, and sometimes read like an out-of-date news magazine. It was objectivity ad absurdum. The heroes of Gordon Jeffrey, B. L. Coombes, Willy Goldman, John Sommerfield and kindred writers are those of fact, barely touched by the imagination. The claim of writers of this type to be creative has little foundation. They do not create at all they record and retail atmospheres and experiences as highbrow reporters, without controlling or adding to them...
