Prufrock and Other Observations
T.S. Eliot
| This collection of poems from Poems (1920) contains one of Eliot’s first and most well-known poems, namely, the Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock, in which he examines, through the introspections of the narrator, the emptiness and soulless quality of the bleak social world surrounding him. |
