Prufrock and Other Observations
ByPublisher Description
"Prufrock and Other Observations" is Eliot's first poetry collection. Comprising 12 poems and built on breath-taking imagery and allusion, each poem showcases Eliot's talent not just as a Poet but as a keen observer of the human condition. And, no poem says this better than "The Love song of J. Alfred Prufrock".
In this introspective poem, Prufrock is all of us, with fears, regrets, and inhibitions. In "Prufrock", Eliot questions mortality, the meaning of life, indecision, worries, failures, and the need to fit in. To love and have the object of our affection love us back.
What T. S. Eliot does in this poem is nothing short of therapeutic. It is one that will force you to look deep within yourself and answer the important questions.
Prufrock asks, "Do I dare, disturb the universe?"
If this a question you've often asked, perhaps after this poem you'll find the courage to answer it.
