This definitive edition of T. S. Eliot's masterpiece presents a new and authoritative version of the poem, along with all the essays Eliot wrote as he was composing <i>The Waste Land</i>, <i></i>seven of them never before published in book form. The volume is enriched with period photographs and a London map of locations mentioned in the poem. <br> Featured in the book are Lawrence Rainey's groundbreaking account of how <i>The Waste Land </i>came<i></i>to be composed; a history of the reactions of admirers and critics; and full annotations to the poem and Eliot's essays. The edition transforms our understanding of one of the greatest modernist writers and the magnificent poem that became a landmark in literary history.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>""The Annotated Waste Land is a nearly indispensable tool for scholars and students alike.
