Mary and T. S. Eliot
From
Date
Body
V. N. returned to Berlin from Cambridge in June, 1922, a few months before
"The Waste Land" first appeared. Has anyone ever discovered any allusions to
Eliot in this first novel (there are plenty, to be sure, in later ones)? Mary
is filled with references to April, and a lot of the urban imagery seems
Eliot-influenced. There are also lilacs and hyacinths, among other things, and a
forlorn typist in love with Ganin.
