Wasteland - Harper Jameson - Bog

Bag om Wasteland

It's the roaring twenties and London's elite enjoy a Great Gatsby lifestyle where more-is-more and greed-is-great. Poets like Robert Frost are the rock stars of the time, attracting several thousand fans to a reading. But beneath the veneer, fascism's message of nationalism, traditional values, return to former greatness and violent intolerance are on the rise in England and America. When an obscure, painfully shy bank clerk wanders onto the literary scene, all of this bubbles to the surface. The Wasteland is the untold story of T.S. Eliot, his secret struggle with being gay, the people left in the wake of his meteoric career trajectory and the madness that helped produce his greatest work.
