REVIEWS: "One of the precious handful [of Eliot studies in the last decade] which have given us fresh news about the elusive poet of The Waste Land. This is impressive biography.informed by crisp and accurate literary intelligence, as well as an approach to Eliot in which judgment and respect are nicely combined. Gordon's most important achievement is her compelling account of Eliot's poetic mission and its visionary matrix. This is an important and challenging book."--William Arrowsmith. "A splendid book. It has merit as biography, as interpretation, and as criticism--a difficult synthesis, here achieved thanks to clear thought and distinguished writing."--Jacques Barzun. "Lyndall Gordon's book is the most thorough and best written account we have of Eliot's early life and works, and offers an interpretation that commands attention and respect."--Richard Ellmann. "[A] small, finely written and very readable essay, to be relished by the general reader and lover of Eliot's poetry."--Doris Grumbach, The New York Times. "Lyndall Gordon has done a superb job of ordering the known biographical facts and relating them to Eliot's early poetic career. I am especially impressed by the discoveries she has made in ordering the complex drafts and typescripts of The Waste Land. Through careful attention to all forms of evidence she has established a sequence of composition which is, in effect, a spiritual autobiography."--A. Walton Litz. "Eliot's Early Years is a model of its kind: authoritative, meticulously documented, sensitive alike to poetic and spiritual nuances."--Times Educational Supplement (London).
