S. Eliot\u003c\/b\u003e (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Waste Land is a classic poem by T. S. Eliot, considered a landmark text of the Modernist movement. Famous for juxtaposing Eastern cultures with Western literary references, The Waste Land has been celebrated for its eloquence, depth of meaning and numerous subtleties. Rich with allusions to religious texts of Hinduism and Buddhism, ancient literature, and Eliot's own life, the poem is admired to this day and is a common text in school and university English literature courses. Painstakingly composed, the original drafts of The Waste Land were far longer than the final edition which is composed of five distinct parts. Truncation occurred on the advice of Eliot's contemporary and friend Ezra Pound. A famous line - \"And we shall play a game of chess\/The ivory men make company between us \/ Pressing lidless eyes and waiting for a knock upon the door\" - was removed at the request of Eliot's wife Vivienne, it is thought for being too revealing about their married life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.25 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 13, 2018\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47351135142137,"sku":"9781387880287","price":33.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/bTNsSGJ0cHNCZ09tcmp1YzFoN1RZUT09.webp?v=1769795323","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/the-waste-land-hardcover-hardcover","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
