1. The Vanity of Human Wishes -- 2. Two and two, necessarye coniunction:Towards 'Amalgamating Disparate Experience' -- 3. He Do the Police in Different Voices: Eyes, You, and I in 'The Hollow Men' -- 4. 'The End of All Our Exploring': The Gift Half Understood in Four Quartets -- 5. Voices Hollow and Plaintive, Unattended and Peregrine: Hints and Guesses in The Waste Land -- 6. Tradition as (Disembodied) Voice: 'The word within the word' in 'Gerontion' -- 7. From Hints and Guesses: Eliot 'B.C.' and After Conversion.

This stimulating and provocative book focuses on the failure to connect that T.S. Eliot saw setting in during the seventeenth century. With special attention to "The Waste Land" and 'Gerontion,' G. Douglas Atkins shows that Eliot roundly satirized modern misunderstandings and urges readers to make the connections that the "wastelanders" fail to make. Thus, a new approach to reading Eliot opens up, based on suggestions he himself made in the prose and enacted in the poetry.
