Ημερομηνία προβολής: Ιαν 03, 1972

The first comprehensive television essay on the life and work of one of the greatest poets of this century, T.S. Eliot... a man who spent eight very satisfactory years' in a City bank; whose works range from the revolutionary Waste Land to Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats - a man full of surprises. He received more honours in his lifetime than any other writer, but to most people almost nothing is known of his life and personality; he seems a mystery. With Mrs Valerie Eliot, Miss Abigail Eliot, Mrs Henry Ware Eliot, Stephen Spender, Robert Lowell, I. A. Richards, Bonamy Dobree, Laurens van der Post, Hope Mirrlees, Eleanor Hinkley, Frank Morley, Jack Eames The Family Reunion Poetry spoken by T.S.
