The Waste Land and Other Poems by T.S. Eliot

5.0

eliot might be one of the only poets who i find formalistic structures work for. i’m far more studied on his prose, particularly his essays on poetics, so i feel like reading his poetry is like stumbling around in the dark with only a really small penlight. but from pure enjoyment i love j. alfred and the hollow men. probably some of my favorite from the 20th century.
