Young Eliot: From St Louis to The Waste Land

Robert Crawford

London: Jonathan Cape

The second volume of Robert Crawford's magisterial biography of the revolutionary modernist, visionary poet and troubled man, drawing on extensive new sources.\nIn this compelling and meticulous portrait of the twentieth century's most important poet, Robert Crawford completes the story he began in Young Eliot. Drawing on extensive new sources and letters, this is the first full-scale biography to make use of Eliot's most significant surviving correspondence, including the archive of letters (unsealed for the first time in 2020) detailing his decades-long love affair with Emily Hale. This long-awaited second volume, Eliot After 'The Waste Land', tells the story of the mature Eliot, his years as a world-renowned writer and intellectual, and his troubled interior life.\nFrom his time as an exhausted bank employee after the publication of The Waste Land, through the emotional turmoil of the 1920s and 1930s, and his years as a firewatcher in bombed wartime London, Crawford reveals the public and personal experiences that helped generate some of Eliot's masterpieces. He explores the poet's religious conversion, his editorship at Faber and Faber, his separation from Vivien Haigh-Wood and happy second marriage to Valerie Fletcher, and his great work Four Quartets.\nRobert Crawford presents this complex and remarkable man not as a literary monument but as a human being: as a husband, lover and widower, as a banker, editor, playwright and publisher, but most of all as an epoch-shaping poet struggling to make art among personal disasters.

The God/Man/World Triangle: A Dialogue Between Science and Religion

The God/Man/World Triangle shows how insights can be gleaned from both science and religion to enable us to understand what the world is like, how the human animal is distinctive from the sub-human, and how we might think of God. It proceeds on the basis that Einstein was right when he said that "science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind." This book opposes the view that we are survival machines and argues that such an explanation is incomplete and is not justified either by science or religion.

Two Tales, Two Heroes, Two Different Centuries, One City. In "A Ghost For Christmas", we meet Scott Carson, the hero of Tatterdemalion just before the events of that epic. A routine photo portrait in the Battery by Carson's mentor Jacob Riis uncovers a shock almost as chilling as its leading to them being chased by a serial killer. And involved in the case are legends Joseph Pulitzer, Nellie Bly and Etta Angell Wheeler. In "A Thug's Epiphany", Joe Roman, ex Soviet-NYPD cop, is introduced. It's Christmas eve in Brighton Beach and Roman has a mission- give his puppy Gawky away to a good home. But a call from a Russian mobster to whom he's long owed a favor succeeds his mission for one far deadlier. His daughter is missing and Roman must go through another mob family to get her back. But as Christmas Eve wears on, Roman and his canine sidekick realize in Brighton Beach nothing is as it seems. And looming almost like a character in itself is the majestic Brooklyn Bridge that unites these two heroes even though they are separated by 129 years in time.
