T. S. Eliots The Waste Land documentary (1987)
Read by noted actors Michael Gough, Edward Fox, and Eileen Atkins, T. S. Eliots The Waste Land powerfully expresses the disillusionment and disgust of the postWorld War I era in Europe. In this program, Professor Frank Kermode, of Cambridge University; Eliot biographer Peter Ackroyd; and poets Sir Stephen Spender and Craig Raine examine the complex nature of Eliots influential poem, analyze its appeal, and trace the reasons why it became one of the bestknown emblems of the 20th century.
