Re: Four Quartets -- a reading
experience
I'm surprised no one has pointed the list at *TSE* himself
reading the FQ. There was a Caedmon set of cassette tapes long
ago, which is still available from Amazon USA:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0694522767
HarperCollins UK offers it on CD
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/0007202636/
(Note that this is *actually* the *CD* version, despite what the
page says; it matches the product number on my own copy, and see also
some buyer's comments which confirm this. This is shown as
temporarily out of stock, but there are links to marketplace
vendors.)
The set includes a wide variety of his poems, TLSoJAP, TWL, THM,
LFcP, Macavity, and much else.

As for Sir Alec Guinness's reading, I could only find
it at amazon:

Hope to listen to it some day -- by the fireside, as
they say!
