DescriptionThis Norton Critical Edition includes: 166 poems spanning the range of Cummings's career, selections of his prose and dramatic writing, twelve paintings and sketches, and three facsimiles of his drafts--the first ever annotated and cross-genre collection of his work aimed at student readers. Annotations, headnotes, and a thorough introduction by Milton A. Cohen, along with an essay by Cohen chronicling the development of Cummings's idiosyncratic style. Four contemporary reviews and six critical essays--by Randall Jarrell, Edmund Wilson, Isabelle Alfandary, and Michael Webster, among others--prefaced by an overview. Comparative studies of two poems--featuring five different responses to each--designed to promote classroom discussion. A chronology, a selected bibliography, and an index of the poems. |
