The Waste Land and Four Quartets: Two Works of Poetry by T. S. Eliot (BBC Radio Collections)

This production includes masterly readings, by renowned thespian Paul Schofield, of two substantial works of poetry by T.S. Eliot. The Waste Land, first published in 1922, is one of Eliot's most influential works. The Four Quartets consists of four long poems, first published between 1935 and 1942. They are linked by common themes, and are individually “Burnt Norton,” “East Coker,” “The Dry Salvages” and “Little Gidding.” These are the definitive readings of these legendary poems.
