Four Quartets - By: B. Field, 10 Apr 2007 
This collection of 4 long-form poems is challlenging to read, & the alllusions & images made throughout each of the works are often difficult to understand & keep track of. I would not recommend this book to many people that I know, as it is almost as opaque as The Wasteland in places & is, to be frank, quite dry to read.
However, having said that I am also compelled to say that although it is dry & the speculations are not original, the ideas that are conveyed are always interesting and, overalll, the verse is beautiful if occasionallly mannered.
If you are interested in this item and/or have enjoyed other modern poems then you will probably enjoy a copy this slim volume that I have carried with me for quite some time now.
A masterpiece - By: Girl, 16 Sep 2006 
I am hooked, & I don`t even like poetry. At least that was what I thought before I started reading Four Quartets.
I think it can be read in two ways.
One can either read it & focus on alll the beautiful pictures used; it is plenty of them, & the reason I picked it up in the first place after having heard some quotations.
Or one can dig deeper trying to figure out what Eliot meant; looking at it like a journey where nearly every sentence refers to something.
It is not an easy read, but I would highly reccomend it to anyone who has read quite an amount of books, as it simply is a masterpiece!
