What is the main subject of the poem "The Wasteland"?

Love
Death and decay in post-WWI society
Nature
Life's struggles

The correct answer is: Death and decay in post-WWI society

The main subject of the poem "The Wasteland" by T.S. Eliot is death and decay in post-WWI society. This is evident through the various allusions and imagery in the poem, which highlight the desolate and hopeless state of society after the war. Options A, C, and D are not the main subject of the poem, as the overall theme and tone of the poem does not revolve around love, nature, or life's struggles. Therefore, B is the most accurate explanation.
