    I have loved Eliot's poetry for half a century and gone through periods where I also read a lot of the critical and biographical material. This is quite simply the most insightful talk about "Four Quartets" I have ever listened to or read. I can't help but imagine Eliot overhearing the talk feeling finally understood in a deep and quite complete way. If I had to recommend a single critical work on the "Four Quartets" this would be it. Truly a beautiful job on this one.

    They didn&apos;t leave for an adventure.<br>They were forced out.<br>Still, I can enjoy a long forgotten Romantic.

    This is a superb lecture. It’s informative, but, also, retains the transformative quality of the Four Quartets. &nbsp;Beautiful.
