There is stuff scattered around the web, eg:

There are also many books of literary criticism written aboiut Eliot's work.


Norton Critical Editions are one of many that have lengthy annotations:

(I personally like Norton editions)


This seems to be a central nodal site:

You're welcome.

Actually, look in the Poetry section here. There are a couple of Eliot discussions there.

Here's one:
