| 1. Enormous Room | 
|
By: E.E. Cummings Publisher: Modern Library May 12, 1977
This is not a book for everyone. I received this book as a gift from a relative, and that's the main reason I thought I'd try it. The book is a portrayal of E.E.

|
By: E. E. Cummings Publisher: Liveright April 17, 1994
The world is a different place when seen through the eyes of E. E. Cummings--or is it e.e.cummings?! To randomly read his work is to become somewhat disoriented by the thoughts, the violations of all one's carefully learned rules of grammar.

| 5. 100 Selected Poems | 
|
By: e. e. cummings Publisher: Grove Press January 10, 1994
I love this collection! Some are cute or funny, others are quite romantic or sexy. I think this plus a book of poems by Pablo Neruda makes a nice combination for poetry lovers (like Neruda's love sonnets). That way you get lots of fun and sexy and loving emotions all rolled into one. A great gift for high school or college students who are just getting into poetry or who adults who like a little... more

This is a beautiful book! It is a quick read and has gorgeous pictures.
