’bald spot’ (if you haven’t realised‚ that phrase is from Prufrock). Well‚ let me assist you by revealing my feelings and analysis on TS Eliot’s issues and concerns. Since I’ve only studied ’The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock’‚ ’Portrait of a Lady’‚ ’Rhapsody on a Windy Night’ and ’Preludes’‚ I’ll be relating my explanation to those poems.
