In this video, we’re analysing T. S. Eliot’s ‘The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock’, a poem that is widely considered to be a landmark document in literary modernism. It's a 140-line dramatic monologue about, among many things, what it looks and feels like to live with regret, longing, and fear about never realising one’s full potential. It's also one of my favourite poems of all time. Dig in for a unique, detailed perspective on this beautiful, timeless piece of work by one of the most masterful poets ever.
