Book Reviews of The Cambridge Companion to T. S. Eliot (Cambridge Companions to Literature)
Book Review: Kindle edition has problems
Summary: 3 Stars
This is a very informative book, and it is well written. But, the Kindle edition has format problems. The end marks don't link, it is missing chuncks of words on some locations (one page has about 10% of the words are missing) several letters per word are missing so the page reads like having to solve a puzzle. On a different page the text is overwritten by other text. This is not in the part you get as the sample. I don't know how they will let anyone know the issue has been fixed, but I just wanted to apply an FYI.
Summary of The Cambridge Companion to T. S. Eliot (Cambridge Companions to Literature)
In this Companion, an international team of leading T. S. Eliot scholars contribute studies of different facets of the writer's work to build up a carefully co-ordinated and fully rounded introduction. Five chapters give a complete account of Eliot's poems and plays from several distinct points of view. The major aspects and issues of his life and thought are assessed: his American origins and his becoming English; his position as a philosopher; his literary, social, and political criticism; and the evolution of his religious sense. Later chapters place his work in a number of historical perspectives; and the final chapter provides an expert review of the whole field of Eliot studies and is supplemented by a listing of the most significant publications. There is a useful chronological outline. Taken as a whole, the Companion comprises an essential handbook for students and other readers of Eliot.Reference Books
