Waste Land, The, & Four Quarters

Saturday, May 10th, 2008 by Book Guy | No Comments »

These are masterly readings, by renowned thespian Paul Schofield,  of two substantial works of poetry by T.S. Eliot.

The Wasteland, first published in 1922, is one of Eliot’s most influential works and has long been on the syllabus for A-Level English Literature. 

The Four Quartets consists of four long poems, first published between 1935 and 1942. They are linked by common themes, and are individually ‘Burnt Norton’, ‘East Coker’, ‘The Dry Salvages’ and ‘Little Gidding’.
