About this listen

The Waste Land by T. S Eliot is narrated by Danielle Cohen and Denis Daly. Eliot's cross-cultural epic poem, first published in 1922, remains one of the most challenging poems in the English language. It is dedicated to Eliot's mentor, Ezra Pound. Like Pound, Eliot reveled in drawing allusions and quotations from a vast body of world literature.

The choice of narrators for such a magnificent poem as this is crucial. I don't need a so called celebrity, but what I do require is clear, crisp, enunciated speech and I felt this was only delivered by Danielle Cohen. This was not the case for for Denis Daly who I considered to be the wrong choice for poetry .
My advice to everyone considering purchasing the recording is to listen to the entire sample offered so that they do not, like me, return the title (an unusual occurrence for me).
