T.S. Eliot's early verse published from 1907-1922; with an active table of contents, correct spacing/breaks, and automatic (poetic) indentation for any size frame or font. For more classic, masterfully kindled poetry titles, look for Perscribo in the Amazon store. The Waste Land, what Ezra Pound called "the longest poem in the English language," is transcribed exactly as it appears in the 1922 edition of "The Dial," with the original editorial Comment announcing Eliot as recipient of The Dial's annual award. Also in this exclusive edition are two contemporary reviews of Eliot's work written by E.E. Cummings and Edmund Wilson, Jr. THE HARVARD ADVOCATE (1907-1910): Song (When we came home across the hill) Song (If space and time, as sages say,) Before Morning Circe's Palace On a Portrait Song (The moonflower opens to the moth) Nocturne Humouresque Spleen Ode (For the hour that is left us Fair Harvard) PRUFROCK AND OTHER OBSERVATIONS (1917): The Love Song of J.

Author

Thomas Stearns Eliot was a poet, dramatist and literary critic. He received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1948 "for his outstanding, pioneer contribution to present-day poetry." He wrote the poems The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock, The Waste Land, The Hollow Men, Ash Wednesday, and Four Quartets; the plays Murder in the Cathedral and The Cocktail Party; and the essay Tradition and the Individual Talent. Eliot was born an American, moved to the United Kingdom in 1914 (at the age of 25), and became a British subject in 1927 at the age of 39. See also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T.S.\_Eliot
