"I have known them all already, known them all:
Have known the evenings, mornings, afternoons,
I have measured out my life with coffee spoons;
I know the voices dying with a dying fall
Beneath the music from a farther room.
So how should I presume?"

the love song of J. Alfred Prufrock was my absolute favourite, the other poems I either didn't quite care for or understand. There were sentences and verses that touched me a lot, but the feeling would soon be swept away by another confusing part. Maybe I would've gotten more out of this if English was my first language?

Favourite poem: 'The love song of J. Alfred Prufrock'. So good!
I'm rating this three stars, because 'The Wasteland' wasn't very enjoyable for me, I'm simply (pardon the language) too stupid to get the references and don't have the required context.
However, I appreciate how free Wasteland is, definitely a huge influence and pioneering breakthrough in poetry. I want to come back to this when I'm smarter.
The formatting of this edition also leaves much to be desired, it felt quite inconsistent and definitely didn't help my reading experience.
