"Winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature, widely honored for his poetry, criticism, essays, and plays, T. S. Eliot exerted a profound influence on his contemporaries in the arts as well as on a great international audience of readers. Four Quartets was the last major verse he wrote and the culminating work in his distinguished career as a poet." from the cover.

Wicked imagery and use of verse. I especially enjoyed reading this book out loud.

These are on a humongous list of books that I am told I must read before I die. So I tried. “The Waste Land”—strike one! “Four Quartets”—strike two! I think my team needs a pinch hitter. Both are classic examples of Eliot’s unintelligible poetry. They’re like reading “Finnigan’s Wake” backward—word by word. I never did “cotton” much to poetry anyway.
