T.S.Eliot's poems,
By Katrina Kang (U.K.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Waste Land, Prufrock and Other Poems (Paperback)
The poems written by T.S.Eliot are extremely enticing poems in the way that they carry various themes which have been used throughout. These themes hold a strong message and I believe that the message that is depicted from Eliot gives us a way to think forward about our own lives. Eliot aims to search for the meaning of life, something we all hope to discover. However, soon after I read these peoms I understood that "life" does not have only one definition. People see life in different ways and have different perspectives and the experiences they have, may dismiss what they once thought life was about. Therefore, my message to all my readers, is that do not waste time searching for what cannot be found! Thankyou! Katrina Kang

Search for your soul,
By
This review is from: The Waste Land and Other Poems (Paperback)
He's the one and only poet of modern man's soul. All modern literature owes to him. Not only this, but he had great imagination and a wry sense of humour. Among his "minor" works sonnets like "The hippopotamus" is worth a poem of some modern writer. Read him to inspire your mind!

Prufrock's Magnum Opus...,
By yygsgsdrassil "yygsgsdrassil" (Crossroads America) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Waste Land and Other Poems (Paperback)
...not exactly "The Love Song..." but "The Waste Land" is Prufrock's alter-ego's best. It says that nobility, moderation, standards of beauty and high taste--all the so called great ideas--have been cast aside for love of the almighty dollar, pursuit of success and wealth. What? You don't believe me? You didn't read that? Read it again. And again. A note or two: Ezra Pound, TS Eliot's friendly foe, did editing of the original manuscript cutting about half of it, but TS loved the work he made the reader go through, so there are great passages of pure license that generally makes the reader go mad, but nevertheless are quite compelling. TS was also quite an aficionado of the French Symbolists, especially Jules Laforgue...this inflenced his work greatly.
