Really interesting interview, thanks for posting, I particularly liked the anecdote about what happened to the original Wasteland manuscript. INTERVIEWER Does the manuscript of the original, uncut Waste Land exist? ELIOT Don’t ask me. That’s one of the things I don’t know. It’s an unsolved mystery. I sold it to John Quinn. I also gave him a notebook of unpublished poems, because he had been kind to me in various affairs. That’s the last I heard of them. Then he died and they didn’t turn up at the sale. It's actually viewable here with Pound's notes: https://www.bl.uk/collection-items/manuscript-of-t-s-eliots-the-waste-land-with-ezra-pounds-annotations https://www.bl.uk/collection-items/manuscript-of-t-s-eliots-...
