This insightful study delves into the mystical underpinnings of T.S. Eliot’s poetry, exploring how his deep engagement with philosophical and spiritual traditions influenced his literary works. Published in the late 20th century, this volume sheds light on Eliot’s complex relationship with mysticism, a subject that captivated many modernist writers grappling with the rapid changes of their era. Fayak M.

For collectors and readers interested in Eliot’s oeuvre, this book offers a unique lens through which to appreciate the metaphysical dimensions of his writing, enriching one’s understanding of a literary titan whose works continue to inspire and challenge interpretations.
