T.S. Eliot, who is commemorated in Poets' Corner in Westminster Abbey’s south transept, is acknowledged as one of the finest 20th-century poets who wrote in English.
His poetry speaks of his own journey of faith - from The Waste Land to the chapel of Little Gidding - The Place where the Fire and the Rose are One - and of the journey of faith we can make in our own time.
Advent is a time of waiting, of returning and, of hope.
