TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY BOY

SIR: God bless us all that your editor Peter Davey is finally gone. His new comments on our Selfridges building (AR March) are primitive, naive and simply ridiculous. Above all they are political comments, not comments by a self-appointed, architectural critic. Please let us have a new Architectural Review, an architectural magazine of the twenty-first century. Please wake up and leave the nineteenth century behind where Peter Davey has been living.
Yours etc

PS The building looked wonderful in the accompanying photograph.
