T.S. Eliot: Poetry, Plays and Prose

The genius of T.S. Eliot contributed immensely in ushering modernism in poetry, play and literary criticism. Therefore, our knowledge of modernism will remain incomplete should we fail to understand Eliot. This book may serve as an introduction to Eliot, the man, the poet, the playwright and the critic. For the benefit of readers, it quotes in full, while introducing and explaining, the poet’s master-pieces, The Waste Land and Four Quartets, and also some of his other great poems. Further, it discusses about all of his five major plays, and nine important essays, at some length.
