PERHAPS THE FINEST POETRY OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY
T.S. Eliot's position in the literature of the world is
unmistakable, largely due to the poems contained within this
volume.
An American who moved to England, Eliot wrote poems reflecting a
deep scholarship and also caught the mood and flavor of a very new
time -- all of these poems (and they're the bulk of the work Eliot
did in his lifetime) come from the years just after World War I.
Clearly and observably, these poems captured the essence of the
hour -- in a very real way, they mark the beginning of a new
literary era.
Here are three of Eliot's first published volumes of poetry
which first appeared in journals, sponsored partly by the famous
poet Ezra Pound.
"Prufrock and Other Observations" published in 1917 contains the
poet's "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock."
"Poems," published in 1920, includes "Sweeney and the
Nightingales."
"The Waste Land," published in 1922 and containing a fascinating
"Notes" is perhaps the poet's most compelling piece.
Reading all these works together, however, creates a remarkable
context that expands the experience of encountering any of these
poems individually.
