The title is taken from TS Eliot’s The Waste Land - and he took it from The Tempest by Shakespeare …
I remember
Those are pearls that were his eyes.
“Are you alive, or not? Is there nothing in your head?”(From The Waste Land)

"West End Girls" is a song by the English #synthpop duo #PetShopBoys. Written by #NeilTennant and #ChrisLowe, the song was released twice as a single. The lyric, concerned with class and the pressures of inner-city life in #London, is inspired partly by #TSEliot's poem #TheWasteLand (1922). The track was generally well received by contemporary music critics and has been frequently cited as a highlight in the duo's career.

The Wasteland (2014)
★☆☆☆
Un regard sur le monde à la fois pessimiste et nihiliste.

Among the works I'm rereading and working on, T.S. Eliot's #TheWasteland also rekindles my love for Arthurian myths, which was partly informed by Terry Gilliam's beautiful film #TheFisherKing. And my mind is wandering about on #ttrpg realms. A one-off adventure maybe? Set in 1918, 1945 or 2023? Definitely a quest. Which system? A light one, narration-based, with shared creative authority.

“The Fisher King, whose portrayal as an angler accounts for his title, is blighted by a wound that will not heal and, because of this injury, the land he rules wilts into a wasteland. Both he and the land will only become well when a knight asks the right question.”
T. S. Eliot and the Holy Grail
The Nobel Laureate drew on a centuries-old legend when he put the Fisher King in The Waste Land.
