Sobre este artículo
New York: Harcourt, Brace, and Company, 1936. 2nd Edition . Hardcover. Very Good/Good. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Very Good cloth second edition (1936) with gilt lettering on spine and Good DJ in protective mylar cover. This second edition introduced for the first time a speech by the chorus to begin part two. The book is in excellent condition: spine is straight and tight. Light rubbing and shelf wear to top and bottom of spine and bottom of front cover. I classify it as Very Good rather than Near Fine because there are a good many penciled notes in the margins throughout the text. Previous owner's name at top right of front free end paper. 86 pages. The DJ has abrasions at bottom of spine and a 1/2 inch tear across top of spine along with age toning overall and creasing to top of front cover area. Looks pretty good in brodart mylar cover, though (see images). 86 pages.

Eliot's best-known drama, based on the murder of the Archbishop of Canterbury in 1170. Praised for its poetically masterful handling of issues of faith, politics, and the common good, T. S. Eliot's play bolstered his reputation as the most significant poet of his time.
