The Waste Land (version 3)
T. S. Eliot
Lu par Elizabeth Klett
The Waste Land is T. S. Eliot's Modernist masterpiece, first published in 1920. Rich in allusions to Shakespeare, Dante, Baudelaire, the Bible, Marvell, Buddha, and the folklore of the Holy Grail, among other sources, the poem emphasizes the fundamental fragmentation and lack of connection that characterizes modern life and relationships.

Thomas Stearns would have loved listening to this. Elizabeth’s considerable verbal skills showed Elliott’s often dry intellectual tone how to kick off its shoes and dance in the rain.

Perfect reading

After being disappointed with the first version I found and abandoning it, this is far far better. I could feel my memory flowing along with it.
