With its complicated framework and imagery, Four Quartets is the culminating success of T. S. Eliot's career. Its greatness is performed full justice in this rendition by the past due Poet Laureate Ted Hughes. Including a few of the most melodic passages in modern poetry, Four Quartets blends the spiritual, the philosophical and the personal styles that preoccupied T. S. Eliot. The four parts, 'Burnt Norton',' East Coker', 'The Dry up Salvages' and 'Little Gidding', are interconnected by both theme and symbol. A poem of warfare, of Christianity, of books and of history, Four Quartets speaks for a whole generation and can be an enduring masterpiece. Thomas Stearns Eliot was created in St Louis, Missouri, in 1888. He came to Britain in 1914 and released his first booklet of poems in 1917. He received the Nobel Award in Books in 1948. Eliot passed on in 1965. Ted Hughes (1930-1998) was created in Yorkshire. His first booklet, The Hawk in the Rainfall, was released by Faber and Faber and was followed by many volumes of poetry and prose for adults and children, including Moortown Journal (1979). He received the Whitbread Reserve of the entire year for both Tales from Ovid (1997) and Birthday Letters (1998). He was Poet Laureate from 1984, and in 1998 he was appointed to the Order of Merit.
