T.S. Eliot : A Twenty-first Century View intends to set the poems and plays of the epoch-making poet in the context of his inner preoccupations as revealed in the recently published biographical works on him. It is a masterly study of all the important poems and plays of Eliot which are included in the syllabi of different Indian universities. The book is comprehensive and lucid, including in its details all the possible ways of interpreting Eliot’s poems and plays. While analyzing the previous trends of Eliot criticism, supplying full documents wherever necessary, the book also projects the well-researched view of its author who equates Eliot’s moral stand with the Kierkegaardian notion of ethical reality, a significant aspect of existentialism, and thus opens a new vista of research on Eliot. Both the students and the scholars will find the book extremely useful.
