The Letters of T. S. Eliot, Volume 7: 1934–1935 by T. S. Eliot
Requirements: ePUB Reader, 3.4MB
Overview: T. S. Eliot’s career as a successful stage dramatist gathers pace throughout the fascinating letters of this volume.
Following his early experimentation with the dark comedy Sweeney Agonistes (1932), Eliot is invited to write the words of an ambitious scenario sketched out by the producer-director E. Martin Browne (who was to direct all of Eliot’s plays) for a grand pageant called The Rock (1934). The ensuing applause leads to a commission from the Bishop of Chichester to write a play for the Canterbury Festival, resulting in the quasi-liturgical masterpiece of dramatic writing, Murder in the Cathedral (1935). A huge commercial success, it remains in repertoire after eighty years.
Even while absorbed in time-consuming theatre work, Eliot remains untiring in promoting the writers on Faber’s ever broadening lists George Barker, Marianne Moore and Louis MacNeice among them.
