Produktbeschreibung

Features letters between Eliot and his associates, family and friends - his correspondents range from the Archbishop of York and the American philosopher Paul Elmer More to the writers Virginia Woolf, and Ralph Hodgson - that shows the ways in which his Anglo-Catholic convictions could, at times, prove a self-chastising and even alienating force.

Rezensionen

[John Haffenden's] presentation of these letters is impeccable. As well as providing a "biographical register" of Eliot's main correspondents, Haffenden has annotated them with extraordinary assiduity, explaining the context, quoting illuminatingly and supplying brief biographies of all involved, in such a way that, with Eliot at its centre, the book amounts to a comprehensive literary history of the time.
