Four Quartets

''That crown which he set on his lifetime''s effort.- Ted Hughes

Four Quartets is the culminating achievement of T. S. Eliot-s career as a poet. This edition is based on the design made by Giovanni Mardersteig for his letterpress edition of 1960 and marks the seventy-fifth anniversary of its first publication in the UK by Faber & Faber in 1944.

-Throughout these poems there is also the invention of new rhythms, of unimagined possibilities in the movement of language . . . He is perhaps more original and inventive in rhythm than any other poet in English.- Delmore Schwartz

-The most original contribution to poetry that has been made in our time.- Edwin Muir
