Thomas Stearns Eliot was born in 1888 in St. Louis, Missouri, and became a British subject in 1927. The acclaimed poet of The Waste Land, Four Quartets, and Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats, among numerous other poems, prose, and works of drama, won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1948. T.S. Eliot died in 1965 in London, England, and is buried in Westminster Abbey.

Been dying to get my hands on a copy of The Waste Land. This was by far the best option because it came with many other classic Eliot poems as well and the book is beautiful! Worth the price

Reviewed in the United States on May 22, 2018

Verified Purchase

From a publisher's production standard this is a physically unattractive book. Like a paperback it's "perfect bound" which means the pages are held together with glue. However, the book does lie flat, probably the only advantage over the cheaper paperback edition. This edition is also T.S. Eliot expurgated. It excludes a number of minor poems, including his anti-Semitic ones. They can be found in Eliot's "Complete Poems and Plays," published years ago, but long out of print.

once and always a favorite

Reviewed in the United States on October 24, 2015

Verified Purchase

Despite many moves, this has always managed to keep a place on my book shelf. Once you work your way through the classics, they become imprinted in your memories as a part of who you once were and now are. You may not always read them, but you always need them. Other books will come and go, but always is T.S. Eliot. Usual suspects are all here, working from "Love Song" up. Re-reading them as you grow older brings different meanings. Every phase has its own tinge of sorrow and joy. My view now of the ladies talking of Michelangelo has changed from a once distant view to a more familiar hue. Every now and then, it occurs to one to ask "Do I disturb the universe?" Maybe one day you finally will. Buy this not because it is on a required reading list. (Even we can learn from required lists). Rather, buy it to remember when you read poetry for the sake of finding emotion when you had more than enough to share. Make it part of your day, poetry. Everyone has to start somewhere, start here.

Excellent edition

Reviewed in the United States on April 13, 2018

The dust cover is decent, the hardcover seems strong, and the book contains a great many of Eliot's poems. There is wide room in the margins for the many notes you will need to write to remind yourself what that bit of French means or what play he's referencing now.

I always think it's silly to review such famous authors on Amazon. Love him or hate him, T.S. Eliot is one of the most influential authors of the 20th century. How could a random Amazon customer have anything new to say about one of the most studied authors in modern history?

This includes all his approved poems published during his lifetime: no plays or criticism. Of course, you need several other books in addition if you want everything he wrote.

Just seems to grow on me

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 9, 2016

Verified Purchase

I have dipped into the various poems found here a number of times. I have tried various books that have sought to make them explicable to thick heads like myself. Still much remains that I am unable to comprehend. Yet the final passage of Four Quartets has long been my favorite piece of poetry, seeming to mix with what I have gleaned from St John of the Cross, Meister Eckhart and the wealth of Pure Land Buddhism.

Now further passages are bearing fruit. What price "Beneath the bleeding hands we feel, The sharp compassion of the healers art" ? And so much more, on time, redemption, love and mercy.

So worth the time and effort. Even when not understood at one level perhaps the beautiful language at times will open us to greater understanding at another. It can perhaps be gathered that Four Quartets is my favorite, but there is so much more here.

Priceless.

Kindle edition seems OK so far

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 28, 2021

Verified Purchase

I haven't read the book in full, but no problems yet. The contents page works, search works. If people find it "full of errors" I wonder how familiar they are with Eliot's work. in 1967, as a sixth former and would-be intellectual, I bought a Faber "Selected Poems" and it seemed full of misspellings and other errors. I set about manually "correcting" these, before realising that they are intended. Eliot uses quotations and obscure references from a wide range of sources. Eg in "A Cooking Egg" there's the line "Pipit sate upright in her chair". The "sate" is intended.

The only issue is that in the Library, the title is displayed as "Collected Poems 1909-1962 (Faber Paper Co...", ie it doesn't mention Eliot's name. If you choose to sort by author, it appears in your library not under "E" for Eliot but under "C".

TS Eliot - collected poems

TS Eliot was awarded the Nobel prize for literature in 1948, bracketed by the novelists Andre Gide and William Faulkner. He is a staple of English literature classes and one of the cornerstones of modernist writing. Despite his lofty reputation his language is straightforward, it is his references that render make his verse so impenetrable. Where the references are to now obscure texts like the Golden Bough it makes the texts more interesting, the more obviously religious poems lack the same mystery and impact.

He has a gift for putting together the smallest number of words to considerable effect, usually a rather bleak modern effect. This is a mixed bag, the major poems are here, along with some occasional verses which have an unconsidered immediacy rare in his works. There are some fragments that are more intriguing than entirely satisfying. No problems with spelling or formatting, though the lack of Old Possums Book of Practical Cats seems rather mean spirited, accordingly marking down to four.

The book sent doesn't have this, new cover. An old copy, 30 yrs old. Brown, brittle pages. May fall apart, as the pages are glued in and it is an ancient copy.
Sellers image fooled me into thinking that I was ordering the current edition. It's not!
