Abstract

The article is devoted to the problem of intertextual inclusions in the John Fowles's
novel «Daniel Martin». Allusions to T. S. Eliot’s poem «The Waste Land» are considered. There is a
connection between Eliot's image of the disintegrated world and the leitmotif of the ruins in Fowles'
novel. The peculiarities of the interpretation by Fowles and Eliot of the prospect of a person gaining
a holistic perception of the world are revealed.
