I recently did a theater competition with my school. Our directors adapted The Waste Land into a staged production, and it was amazing. This poem has so much meaning and these videos helped me so much in understanding it and putting on a performance.

Thanks a lot. These modern lines remind me a lot of the poems of Simbólicas, by José María Eguren (1911) from Peru. Thank you again.

The video is good.

Please remove the back ground music

[@TheUnemployedHistorian]

I do not have the original files of this video anymore so I am not going to do that, sorry!

[@MdANWAR]

Ok no problem

[@kenjohnson6326]

Music makes it unlistenable.

[@hajiranadeem8387]

the background music is so annoying

[@TheUnemployedHistorian]

You're probably right.

[@joslynduran4118]
