The waste land : a biography of a poem / Matthew Hollis.

'The Waste Land' is the greatest poem of the age. But a century after its publication in 1922, T.S. Eliot's masterpiece remains a work of comparative mystery. In this gripping account, award-winning biographer Matthew Hollis reconstructs the making of the poem and brings its times vividly to life. He tells the story of the cultural and personal trauma that forged the poem through the interleaved lives of its protagonists - of Ezra Pound, who edited it, of Vivien Eliot, who endured it, and of T.S. Eliot himself whose private torment is woven into the fabric of the work. The result is an unforgettable story of lives passing in opposing directions: Eliot's into redemptive stardom, Vivien's into despair, Pound's into unforgiving darkness.

Young Eliot : from St Louis to The waste land / Robert Crawford.

This major biography traces the life of the 20th century's most important poet from his childhood in the ragtime city of St Louis right up to the publication of his most famous poem, 'The Waste Land'. Meticulously detailed, it portrays a brilliant, shy and wounded American who defied his parents' wishes and committed himself to life as an immigrant in England, authoring work astonishing in its scope and hurt. Quoting extensively from poetry and prose as well as drawing on new interviews, archives, and previously undisclosed memoirs, it shows how T.S. Eliot's background in Missouri, Massachusetts and Paris made him a lightning conductor for modernity, as well as how deeply personal were the experiences underlying his masterpieces.
