Awarded the Best Adult App at the FutureBook Awards in 2011 and the International Interaction Design Award in 2013.

“As someone coming from the wrong side of the two cultures, Eliot's poem had effectively been closed off to me for decades. Now it isn't, and that in itself would almost justify the price of the iPad that made it possible.”
- The Guardian, UK, John Naughton

The Waste Land is a collaborative publication between Faber and Faber, Eliot's longtime publisher in London where he worked for nearly four decades, and RGB. RGB is the creative force behind other groundbreaking interactive iPad books like The Elements and Solar System, which are shaping the future of literature. Interviews and Fiona Shaw's performance are expertly recorded by Adam Low, director of the BBC Arena documentary on Eliot.

The original publication of The Waste Land in 1922 marked a pivotal moment in 20th-century literary history. This edition continues Eliot's legacy and vividly showcases how literature can thrive through the modern digital medium.
