About “The Dry Salvages”
The Dry Salvages is the third poem in T. S. Eliot's Four Quartets, written in 1941. It was composed during the air-raids on Great Britain, an event that affected Eliot while he was giving lectures. The poem's title refers to a rock formation off the coast of Cape Ann, Massachusetts, a place Eliot visited as a child. The work marks the point where Eliot began shaping the four poems as a unified series. (Summary adapted from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA 4.0.)
