The present article is a reflection of modern society. There is no labour but gold, no love but lust, no wisdom but conspiracy, no spirituality but infertility. Yes, this is modern sensibility. Eliot, a versatile genius, extraordinary personality and a matchless poet has transformed the world in a different shape in his epic The Waste Land. Eliot appears as an engineer of words, doctor of thoughts, actor of soul, leader of humanism and master of realism. His literary life is a quest for a new path from physical to metaphysical world. This masterpiece reveals the evilness of the European society. He breaks through the world of imagination and comes on the surface of waste land.
