However, he retains a grounding in the social reality/order of his time....

Wasn't in a known fact at Columbia in those days that George Eliot was not a HE?

If this were George Bush such ignorance would be deemed evidence of complete imbecility.

That’d be Thomas Stearns Eliot, not George.

T.S., not George.

The only partially true statement here is that this nitwit hasn't read "The Waste Land" lately -- but for "lately" read "never". Anybody who can think that Yeats and Eliot are singing from the same page is an idiot.

He’s referring to the 20th century American poet T(homas) S(tearns) Eliot.

Good catch. I wonder why Harvard-educated Shapiro did not pick up on that.
