East of Coker strikes via a London and an Iraq that shadows TS Eliot’s Waste Land, asking what accountability do these left in the back of need to those who could rather be forgotten and, how via recognition of what we now have performed, who we're, and the place we're all necessarily heading to, what happiness should be found.'

‘This is an bold and considerate e-book, priceless either for itself and its charitable hyperlinks. It weaves tales of loss and warfare round a constitution of T.S. Eliot’s the Waste Land and speaks for, in addition to helps, a few of these for whom speech is hard but worthy within the wake of prior trauma.’ homosexual Watson, A Philosophy of Emptiness.
