The Complete Poems and Plays, 1909-1950
About This Book
An indispensable collection of the Nobel Prize winner’s most renowned works.
“In ten years’ time, ” wrote Edmund Wilson in Axel’s Castle, “Eliot has left upon English poetry a mark more unmistakable than that of any other poet writing in English.” In 1948, Eliot was awarded the Nobel Prize “for his work as a trail-blazing pioneer of modern poetry.”
This book is made up of six individual titles: Four Quartets, Collected Poems: 1909–1935, Murder in the Cathedral, The Family Reunion, Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats, and The Cocktail Party. It offers not only enjoyment of one of the great talents in contemporary literature, but a deeper understanding of such classics as “The Waste Land, ” “The Hollow Men, ” “Ash Wednesday, ” “Prufrock, ” “Murder in the Cathedral, ” and “The Cocktail Party.” The Complete Poems and Plays of T. S. Eliot is indispensable.
