1:06:08Now PlayingT.S. Eliot's "The Waste Land" is known as one of the most depressing poems ever. Eliot refuses to offer any BS or happy talk: his spare, cold look at the woes of modernity can help us understand where hope lives when everything else goes dark.
In this episode of Young Heretics, Spencer Klavan argues that this work also contains the seeds of Eliot's eventual conversion to Christianity and hope for us in our own depressing age.

Today’s academies of higher education are so consumed with race theory, queer theory, gender theory, and every other theory you can think of that they miss what makes Western culture—specifically Western literature, philosophy, and poetry—great.
