1934 The Rock
What Our Customers Say...
Description
First Edition, Publishers' Original Binding
The first edition, first impression, softcover issue. One of 2,000 copies of the first edition, as this work was published simultaneously in two issues, 1,000 issued in boards, and 1,000 in wrappers.
'The Rock' was a pageant play written by T. S. Eliot in 1934 for the Diocese of London, to raise funds for new churches.
Blending verse drama with choral elements, the play juxtaposes the enduring strength of the Church (symbolised by the "rock") with the transient nature of human institutions.
