Book Description

2 Jan 2002

April is the cruellest month, breeding

Lilacs out of the dead land, mixing

Memory and desire, stirring

Dull roots with spring rain . . .

Published in 1922, The Waste Land was the most revolutionary poem of its time, offering a devastating vision of modern civilisation which has lost none of its power as we enter a new century.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good poetry, but too little of it 3 July 2001
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
This selection is okay -- but you hardly need a selected Eliot as his Collected Poems is not much longer, and is only a few pounds more. That's the one I'd go for.

5.0 out of 5 stars listen to it often 24 Mar 2013
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
It is a poem that requires patience so do not be put off with first reading. After a number of readings it will grow on you.

5.0 out of 5 stars Read the Title 16 Mar 2013
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Whether you have known the book for ages or are about to try it for the first time, note that the title is The Waste Land, not The Wasteland (which a disappointing number of people seem to think it is). You will then have the key to a book that was central to the twentieth century's poetry.
