One of only 3500 copies printed, and in beautiful, collectible condition. Considered Eliot’s last great work by many critics and an important work introducing a new form, by one of the premier English poets of the twentieth century. Collected here for the first time, Four Quartets are four interlinked meditations with the common theme being man's relationship with time, the universe, and the divine. In describing his understanding of the divine within the poems, Eliot blends his Anglo-Catholicism with mystical, philosophical and poetic works from both Eastern and Western religious and cultural traditions, with references to the Bhagavad-Gita and the Pre-Socratics as well as St. John of the Cross and Julian of Norwich. A beautiful example. A single 1” tear with two small creases at the top edge of the rear jacket. 39 pages. 5.75 x 8.75.
