2 out of 5 stars Not as authoritative as at first might appear   July 22, 2006
 8 out of 12 found this review helpful

Anyone thinking about buying this edition should consult Jim McCue's article, "Editing Eliot," in Essays in Criticism (Jan. 2006). He indicates a number of errors in the text both of the poem and of the prose. I wish I'd known about them before spending my hard-earned cash. What McCue doesn't acknowledge is that access to even a faulty text of the prose is better than none at all for someone without ready access to a copyright library; but it would appear that no scholar can confidently quote from this edition.


5 out of 5 stars Accessible and Erudite   November 13, 2005

Rainey's introduction is lucid and highly accessible. In delineating the stages of production and publication of The Waste Land he guides the 21st century reader towards a more comfortable and natural reading of the text. It enabled me to approach The Waste Land with a fresh eye, unencumbered by the need to impose an overarching structure. Fascinating and illuminating.
