<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>In the delightfully small Pocket Poets format that has proved so popular, a selection of the early poems of one of the greatest and most influential poets of our century. This essential collection includes that towering landmark of modernism, "The Waste Land", as well as such keenly ironic classics as "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" and "Sweeney Among the Nightingales".<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>T. S. Elliot (1888-1965) was the dominant force in twentieth-century British and American poetry. With poems such as "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock," he introduced an edgy, disenchanted, utterly contemporary version of French Symbolism to the English-speaking world. With his masterpiece "The Waste Land," he almost single-handedly ushered an entire poetic culture into the modern world. And with his enormously influential essays he set the canonical standards to which writers and critics of poetry have adhered throughout our era.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Thomas Stearns Eliot (1888-1965) was born and raised in St. Louis, Missouri, and spent many of his adult years in England. He worked for a bank while writing poetry, teaching, and reviewing, and was soon recognized as a force in the British literary world. <i>The Waste Land</i> confirmed his reputation as an innovative poet.
