Book SynopsisOffers fresh insights into the T S Eliot's intentions and shows us that "The Waste Land" is even stranger and more startling than we knew.
Trade Review"'The most significant contribution to Eliot scholarship since the facsimile edition of the manuscripts appeared in 1971.' Ronald Schuchard, Emory University 'Rainey's research rises from original scholarship to creative criticism, entering sympathetically into the lyrical process and restoring the written fact of the poem to the reader." Jeremy Noel-Tod, Times Literary Supplement Revisiting "The Waste Land" and The Annotated Waste Land with Eliot's Contemporary Prose are the winners of the 2006 Robert Motherwell Book Award for outstanding publications in the history and criticism of modernism in the arts."
