Sobre este artículo
London: The Egoist Press, 1917. Original wraps. Very Good. The 1917 true 1st edition, limited to 500 copies, of T.S. Eliot's first published book. A slim, fragile volume physically but one that set the poetry world ablaze upon publication. Seen as a seminal bridge toward Modernism, Eliot's voice in this debut work is an exemplar of stream of consciousness and foretells his exalted place --along with that of Ezra Pound's-- in Modernist sensibilities. Solid and VG in its unassuming beige wrappers, with one small closed tear and very light scuffing and soiling along the panels. Light chipping as well --with about 30% loss-- along the spine. Internally, the text is very clean, the pages bright-white. Small, neat signature at the foot of the title page ("Mitchell Dawson", Chicago poet and patron of the arts, 1890-1956), otherwise no markings internally to speak of. 12mo, 40 pgs. Also includes a handsome custom box (blue cloth, green leather title label).
Sinopsis
This collection of poems contains one of Eliot's first and most well-known poems, namely, the Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock, in which he examines, through the introspections of the narrator, the emptiness and soulless quality of the bleak social world surrounding him.
