About this listen

A masterly new recording by Ralph Fiennes. Four Quartets is the culminating achievement of T. S. Eliot's career as a poet.

While containing some of the most musical and unforgettable passages in 20th-century poetry, its four parts, 'Burnt Norton', 'East Coker', 'The Dry Salvages' and 'Little Gidding', present a rigorous meditation on the spiritual, philosophical and personal themes which preoccupied the author.

It was the way in which a private voice was heard to speak for the concerns of an entire generation, in the midst of war and doubt, that confirmed it as an enduring masterpiece.

Critic reviews

"Eliot's own reading of Four Quartets was masterly, but this recording is an elegant tribute." ( The Guardian)

I listen to this regularly at night. TS Eliot has revealed a new perspective on life to me, now alone in my late 70s. The tone of Ralph Fiennes.voice is calming and reflective and had led me to other titles equally rewarding
