<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Gordon's biographical work on T.S. Eliot has won many dramatic accolades. Drawing on recently discovered letters, she addresses in full the issue of Eliot's anti-Semitism as well as the less-noted issue of his misogyny. Her account "rescues both the poet and the man from the simplifying abstractions that have always been applied to him".--"New York Times".<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>In this nuanced, discerning account of a life famously flawed in its search for perfection (<em>The New Yorker</em>), Gordon captures Eliot's complex spiritual and artistic history . . . with tact, diligence, and subtlety (<em>Boston Globe</em>). Drawing on recently discovered letters, she addresses in full the issue of Eliot's anti-Semitism as well as the less-noted issue of his misogyny. Her account rescues both the poet and the man from the simplifying abstractions that have always been applied to him (<em>The New York Times</em>), and is definitive but not dogmatic, sympathetic without taking sides. . . . Its voice rings with authority (<em>Baltimore Sun</em>). Praised by Cynthia Ozick as daring, strong, psychologically brilliant, Gordon's study remains true to the mysteries of art as she chronicles the poet's insistent search for salvation.
