## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Well written and fair-minded biography.
  

*by F***R on Reviewed in the United States on November 2, 2022*

Finally got around to finishing this account of Eliot's personal life.It quite well predicted the broad outlines of the contents of his more recently published correspondence.Not that he deserves excuses for his cruelties, but he was harder on himself than he was on the many he chose to despise for embracing the easy ways he aspired to transcend. He long knew himself to be a failure, but because he could not admit that his life ended up being rather complicated and deceptive. A tragic life one must suppose because a bit of self-forgiveness would finally free him during his declining years to embrace real happiness, but only after breaking the hearts of the last of his life-long friends.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    He was an extremely complex man who wrote poetry to match his personal complexity. Great book.
  

*by E***S on Reviewed in the United States on March 7, 2022*

The book is somewhat tedious, but so is the subject. What I dislike most is the author’s frequent use of foreign language parenthetical inserts without providing translations for the less educated among her audience. I consider this to be a bit pretentious and unnecessary. The book is highly detailed and provides explications for Eliot’s more obscure poems that are very helpful.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    T S Eliot for the world at large, an indispensable book.
  

*by J***N on Reviewed in the United States on October 23, 2020*

This is a brilliant work. It captures the very essence of Eliot’s unique personality and his rather sad, melancholic life which changed with the appearance of his second wife, who gave him joy, a sense of security, as well as strength in his spiritual quest which was so important in his personal and creative self. This unique life will satisfy readers who cherish his poetry and also the newcomer, who will discover this magnificent man who gave so much sense and beauty to the tragic 20th century, without hiding the sadness and deep sorrows that we had to endure. The Waste Land is a monumental work of art and a deep psychological portrait of those life changing years. A must read!!
