In this poem the most part I familiar is this part “Let us go then, you and I,When the evening is spread out against the sky Like a patient etherized upon a table;Let us go, through certain half-deserted streets,”” for my own understanding is that the author really desire about love, he wants his lover is in his spirit make him does not feel so lonely, I want to explain this part because a lot people think about my lover what is going to be like, however I think the most important thing about lovers is the lover can help you in the spirit, can stimulate you. The author using metaphor for the second and third phrase. The word that I do not understand I highlight in the hypothes.is. So I think author use metaphor is trying to show the reader feel more realistic the lover in his mind.
I agree with you that Prufrock is lonely and is longing for love. What do you see in the lines you’ve quoted that connect to that idea?
