• understand the poem’s many references and allusions with the help of comprehensive interactive notes
• reveal the structure of the verse and move quickly between sections with a new navigation tool
• watch over 35 expert video perspectives on the poem including contributions from Seamus Heaney and Jeanette Winterson

“As someone coming from the wrong side of the two cultures, Eliots poem had effectively been closed off to me for decades. Now it isnt, and that in itself would almost justify the price of the iPad that made it possible.”
-The Guardian, UK, John Naughton
------------
The Waste Land is published jointly by Faber and Faber and RGB. Faber is the London publisher where Eliot himself worked for almost four decades; RGB is behind other revolutionary interactive books for iPad including The Elements and Solar System which are defining the future of publishing. The interviews and Fiona Shaws performance are specially filmed by Adam Low, director of the BBC Arena documentary on Eliot.
Publication of The Waste Land in 1922 was a milestone in the literary history of the 20th Century. This edition carries forward Eliots vision and vividly demonstrates how literature can be illuminated by the new digital medium.
