With its intricate structure and reverberative imagery, "Four Quartets" is the culminating achievement of T.S. Eliot's career. Its greatness is done full justice in this rendition by the Poet Laureate, Ted Hughes.

Containing some of the most melodic passages in modern poetry, "Four Quartets" blends the religious, the philosophical and the personal themes that preoccupied Eliot. The four parts, "Burnt Norton, East Coker, The Dry Salvages" and "Little Gidding," are interconnected both by theme and by symbol. A poem of war, of Christianity, of literature and of history, "Four Quartets" speaks for a whole generation and is an enduring masterpiece.

About T.S. Eliot

Leader of the Modernist movement and Nobel laureate, Thomas Stearns Eliot (1888-1965) was born in St. Louis, Missouri, and later took British citizenship. His sequence The Waste Land appeared in 1922, followed by Four Quartets (1943). Earlier work included Prufrock and Other Observations (1917) and Ash-Wednesday (1930). Eliot also wrote for the stage, notably the verse drama Murder in the Cathedral (1935), and worked as an influential critic and publisher. He received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1948 and the British Order of Merit the same year.
