A detailed and resourceful book of cummings' biography, influences, and poetic style. When we cover this poet during our poetry unit, we usually review the textbook's biography which hints at his prisoner of war status and artistic background. I could definitely use information from this book to further that background and promote further analysis of his poetic style. This could be a wonderful resource for my students who choose cummings as their research paper topic; he is popular, but many of them struggle with his unique compositions.

I learned a lot, having previously known next to nothing about Cummings' life. He was a painter as well as a poet, heavily dependent financially on his parents for almost his whole life and only recognised for his genius quite late in life. He had a quite adventurous life, what with ending up interned in France during WWI and visiting Soviet Russia in the 1930s.
I can recommend this as an introduction to Cummings' life and work, but I still want to read a comprehensive biography aimed at adults. ( )
