Eliot Land

On this day, September 26 in 1888, T. S. Eliot was born into the world in St. Louis, Missouri. In honor of his birthday, we present this 1932 First American edition of his Poems 1909-1925, published by Harcourt, Brace and Co. in New York.

Thomas Stearns Eliot (1888-1965) was an American-English poet, dramatist, publisher, essayist, editor, and literary critic. He was a leader in the Modernist poetry movement and is considered one of the greatest poets of the 20th century. He breathed new life into English poetry through his explorations in phrasing, style, and structure. He is most famously known for his 1922 publication, The Waste Land, which is often deemed the most influential poetic work of the 20th century. Among the many awards and honors given to Eliot were the British Order of Merit and the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1948, three Tony Awards in 1950 and 1983 (two posthumously for Cats), and the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 1964.
