T.S Eliot

T.S Eliot deferred to Yeats as "the greatest poet" of his time, but it was himself the most famous. he was cultured and his travel showed in his writing especially french influence. he was considered pioneer of 20th century writing because even though he was fully adapted to classical and traditional writing but also brought philosophical position and new rhythm. his personal problems showed in his poems like the waste land which begins with "april is the curliest month" which is said for his separation from an unhappy marriage. even before he finished the wasteland he had a breakdown which is also very much evident in his poem. he expressed much of isolation and horror of modern city. as many of his poem their is a sense of uncertainty and turmoil which is very much expressing of his life always trying to break away from certain mold and expectations of his family.
