T S Eliot’s “The Waste Land” revisited

Those of us who feast on Radio 4 have been bombarded by the message ‘1922 is an important year.’  Important primarily because of the publication of James Joyce’s Ulysses and T S Eliot’s The Waste Land and, more generally, the prominence of modernism.

Sue Boyle selected this year to focus on The Waste Land, its many interpretations, its spurs to the imagination and significantly for all its food for thought.  Her group of dedicated explorers have discovered rich sources of expression and creativity.

In this talk, Sue Boyle and some of the members of this group will provide highlights from their journey through The Waste Land, a poem many of us may have studied or recently revisited with varying degrees of comprehension.

Whether you wish to give The Waste Land another go, learn about a collaborative experience or celebrate with the team who approached T S Eliot most intensely over the last year, do join us!

Who said April is the cruellest month?
