T. s.eliot’s the waste land is the greatest modernist text written in 1922. It is one of the largest poems I have read. Eliot has created multiple spaces, multiple times, ages, histories of different eras. It becomes a collage because here Skakespeare, Chaucer, fairy tales, Brihat aranya upanishad all come together with simultaneous order. They provide us a multiplex of experiences where we can not stop for a single moment. It always challenges the singularity of the thought and our conventional ideologies about a poem. Waste land ends with a pledge for peace-’shanti, shanti, shanti!’ It also literally describes the destruction, the frustrations, the despair of war and how war challenges our productivity and how we are paralysed mentally to create, to rejuvinate, to unite. Thats why, fragmentation looms large n the poem as it affects our world and lives. Its a poem that describes the modern condition with all its aspects, with all its negativities and frustrations. Its a cult poem and needs reading of numerous times. And all the times it evolves a new aspect that was not enlarged till now. That’s why its a collage land.
