Murder in the Cathedral (collected Works of Eliot)
About This Novel
Eliot's 60th anniversary edition; "My life is an inadvertent bit of waste in an orderly universe." Reproduces the murder scene that shocked the Middle Ages and illuminates the spiritual wasteland of modern people. This book is based on the translation of the drama part of "The Complete Poems and Dramas of Thomas Eliot" published by Faber Publishing House in 1969. It includes Eliot's five major dramas: "The Cathedral Murders", the most famous British poetic drama since the seventeenth century, which combines elements of Greek drama and detective drama in the mid-twelfth century, and shows the main themes. "Family Reunion", a work about the hero's self-redemption process; Eliot's most popular play "The Cocktail Party", which explores the twisted outlook on life; "Secretary", the only drama on the New York Times bestseller list in the past thirty years; and the author's last work "The Elder Statesman". His realistic approach and storyline, as well as his pursuit of deep symbolic meaning in his works, had a huge influence on the playwrights of his generation.
