Over the course of a lifetime, and throughout its many printings, variants, discrepancies, authorial revisions and printers’ errors have introduced anomalies that have served to undermine the authority of the volume.
This new, reset publication establishes a corrected and reliable text for Eliot’s poetry that enables an authoritative edition of Collected Poems 1909-1962 to be presented here for the very first time.
‘Each year Eliot’s presence reasserts itself at a deeper level, to an audience that is surprised to find itself more chastened, more astonished, more humble.‘ ~ Ted Hughes
‘He is among the greatest poets of the English language.’ F. R. Leavis ‘Eliot was the modern poet par excellence.’ Seamus Heaney
