Publisher's Comments
"An accomplished biographer. . . .Highly recommended."—Choice

Biographical writing about T. S. Eliot is in a more confused and contested state than with any other major twentieth-century writer. This biography—the first to be published since the public's perception of Eliot was radically altered by the publication of his early poems The Inventions of the March Hare in 1996—frees Eliot of previous distortions of his life, including his cold and unemotional image, and shows how Eliot's poetry can be read for its revelations about his inner world.

John Worthen is the acclaimed author of D. H. Lawrence: The Life of an Outsider.
