I just read Four Quartets again the other day. It's still marvellous. I
don't understand why people get so peeved at Eliot; is he too dominant? Too
linked with Leavis (?) Is it simply that his poems are too beautiful?
Ashbery strikes me as someone who draws most interestingly from Eliot's
music; say parts of Flow Chart...
