'The Wasteland' T.S.Eliot: http://www.bartleby.com/201/1.html
The links that Cecilia, Maya, Hannah, Maeve and more of you made between this poem and the description the valley of ashes are fantastic. Maya took it to another level by suggesting that these wastelands could be a metaphrical representation of the relationships at work in the novel/poem and therefore in this era.
