Back to the future
What a good idea. Faber have launched a Waste Land app . Among the numerous features is T.S. Eliot reading from The Waste Land. Listening to it, I was reminded of the opening lines of Four Quartets (Time present and time past/ Are both perhaps present in time future). There seems something fitting about Eliot's patricianly drawl being played on a gadget that embodies the future.
I doubt that the Waste Land App will be a roaring commercial success to rival the Pocket God app, in which you rule omnipotent over pygmies, but so what? It's tremendous fun, and an excellent way for publishers to introduce new audiences to their back catalogues.

I'd listen to him reading The Four Quartets, by TS Eliot. Jools Holland, for the whole big band sound and the way he plays boogie woogie. I Capture the Castle by Dodie Smith. It's pure escapism and I love the eccentric characters. My favourite book.

It was TS Eliot who said in Four Quartets that “words crack, strain and sometimes break,” meaning that we just cannot express an experience in words. The spirit dance is really trance-dancing where there is no observable difference between the dancer

Little Gidding: Small Moves, Peace Of Mind
That overwhelmed feeling, too many things to do, not enough time in the day, can't get it all done, seems to be shared by many. We may be overstimulated, or place too many demands on our own time, between the things we want to do, and the things we feel like we have to do. Of course there have been thousands of discussions about "shoulds", and choices, and modern society being over run with electronic communication. But there may be some shortcuts through the stress, back to "you". One of the ways that time is organized in academic and professional settings is the simple schedule. Just like in school or work, put up a blackboard or whiteboard somewhere in plain sight. Then, simply write the things down that you need and want to get done that day, as if you were writing it for someone else; like you are the teacher, professor, or boss. Write the start time and the end time next to the task, just like a classroom or business day schedule. Then, walk away. Now you can be the student or the employee, and just go by that schedule that the "teacher" or the "boss" wrote on the board. If you finish a task early, you can take a break until the time for that task has ended. If you do not finish by the time the next task starts, just shelve the task until after the schedule is finished, or resume the next day. If you find you did not schedule enough time for a task that must be completed, you can always adjust the schedule the next day. Just like in class, or working for someone else. . The titles refer to places that were important to Mr. Eliot. "Little Gidding" refers to an Anglican community's church that he visited in 1936 in Huntingdonshire called St. John's, which is also the name of the church where I attended Nursery School and Vacation Bible School. I was the youngest child and always the smallest child, and the nickname "Little Gidding" was occasionally bestowed lovingly upon my brow. That was a sacred, golden time and place, and when I think of it I am there again, completely and unequivocally.
