April is the cruellest month | The Waste Land Lecture

To mark this year’s 100th anniversary of The Waste Land, Jim McCue will consider why we are still reading T. S. Eliot’s poem, how our understanding of it has changed, and what was meant by “editing” it as part of a 2,000-page scholarly edition of the poetry. Presented in partnership with Bristol Poetry Institute. (Photo Credit: Granville Davies)
