Who is T.S. Eliot ?
Thomas Stearns Eliot(September 26, 1888 – January 4, 1965) was a playwright, literary critic, and an important English-language poet of the 20th century.
"It wouldn't be what it is, and I imagine it wouldn't be so good ... if I'd been born in England, and it wouldn't be what it is if I'd stayed in America. It's a combination of things. But in its sources, in its emotional springs, it comes from America."

Head piece filled with straw. Alas!
Leaning Together

Our dried voices, when We whisper together
Are quiet and meaningless

As wind in dry grass-Or rats’ feet over broken glass-In our dry cellar

Shape without form, Shade without colour,
Paralyzed force, gesture without motion;

Those who have crossed
With direct eyes, to
death’s other kingdom

Remember us, if at all, not as lost

Violent souls, but only As the hollow men The stuffed men

Eyes I dare not meet in dreams in death’s dream kingdomThese do not appear

There,
The eyes are sunlight on a broken column

There, is a tree And voices are In the wind’s
Swinging
Singing

Than a fading star
More distant and more solemn

Let me be no nearerIn death’s dream kingdom
Let me also wear such deliberate disguises
![Page 16: The Hollow Men](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102902/5588e4efd8b42a2d148b45f1/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Rat’s coat, crow skin, crossed staves
In a field behaving as the wind behaves
No nearer-

Not that final meeting In the twilight
kingdom
