"The Wasteland" is a poem published by T.S. Eliot in 1922. Considered as being perhaps the foremost example of high-modernism, "The Wasteland" is a 443-line poem riddled with allusions to Christ, references to Greek mythology, French poetry, as wells as a litany of classical works.

Though the tone of "The Wasteland" is considered somewhat somber, and full of despair, some interpret the ending to offer a glimmer of hope, foreshadowing Eliot's conversion to Anglicanism; Eliot was a devout member of the Anglican church at the time of his death.
