"Preludes" is a poem by T. S. Eliot, composed between 1910 and 1911. [1] It is in turns literal and impressionistic, exploring the sordid and solitary existences of the spiritually moiled as they play out against the backdrop of the drab modern city. In essence, it is four poems rather than one, and it is duly labelled as such.
