I picked up a second impression (Nov. 1942) of this Faber

publication today.


The book is a bit of an oddity: it's a reprint (1941) of the
second half of "Collected Poems" (1936). It presumably
contains "Burnt Norton", but not "East Coker" which had been
published separately in 1940. ("Burnt Norton" was also
published separately in 1941, as was "Dry Salvages".)



You are right. I note that The Four Quartets was not published until
1943, sometime after my Nov. 1942 printing.


Yes - although "Little Gidding" had also been published separately by then.

(It's "Four Quartets" *not* "The Four Quartets" - just as I should have
written "The Dry Salvages" not "Dry Salvages".)
