The Waste Land: a facsimile & transcript of the original drafts including the annotations of Ezra Pound edited by Valerie Eliot by T S Eliot |
I have been much drawn back to this masterpiece - which has lived with me since my teens - by a superb Arena documentary and much editorial coverage in its centenary year 2022. There is perhaps no better way to fully appreciate it than by studying the facsimile transcript of the original drafts annotated by Ezra Pound and Vivien Eliot which was published in 1969. ”On Margate Sands, I can connect nothing with nothing” How bleak, how contemporary!
