The Hollow Men portrays a poetic consciousness

in which intense nostalgia for a state of heavenly purity

conflicts with the paradoxical search for a long-lasting form of order

through acts of denial and alienation

To the common observation that The Hollow Men expresses

the depths of Eliot’s despair

one must add that the poet in a sense `chooses´ despair

as the only acceptable alternative to the inauthentic existence

of the unthinking inhabitants of the waste land..





I am now quite sure that 'Tragedy and Hope' was suppressed although
I do not know why or by whom. ~ C.Quigley ~
