S. Eliot published in 1922. It has been called \"one of the most important poems of the 20th century.\" Despite the poem's obscurity-its shifts between satire and prophecy, its abrupt and unannounced changes of speaker, location and time, its elegiac but intimidating summoning up of a vast and dissonant range of cultures and literatures-the poem has become a familiar touchstone of modern literature. Among its famous phrases are \"April is the cruellest month,\" \"I will show you fear in a handful of dust,\" and the mantra in the Sanskrit language \"Shantih shantih shantih.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Martino Fine Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47597095157911,"sku":"9781614274315","price":586.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781614274315.webp?v=1774996224","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-waste-land-facsimile-of-1922-first-edition-9781614274315","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
