Description: Hi! You're looking at a great condition book which is a classic World War I novel written by author and poet E. E. CUMMINGS--the book is a 1949 Modern Library Edition and a HARDCOVER with the ORIGINAL DUSTJACKET and is NOT a remainder copy and NOT price-clipped, with the original $1.65 price in the upper corner of the front inner flap. This book is in great condition and the book itself has approximately 20 pages with light underlining (in some cases just a phrase or sentence), margin brackets, and a few instances of marginalia and a slight ding on the bottom right tip of the front cover but NO other significant imperfections; the dustjacket has a small address written on the upper right corner of the back cover, a tear on the upper left edge of the front cover, small tears and dings on the spine tips, a few small tears on the upper and lower edges, light dings and tiny tears on the opening tips, a tiny tear on the upper right edge of the front inner flap and just light shelfwear otherwise but NO other significant imperfections! The book is titled The Enormous Room and it was written by E. E. CUMMINGS; it was published by The Modern Library in 1949.One of the most important and popular American poets of the 20th century, e. e. cummings is best known for his brilliant and innovative verse and its distinctive lack of uppercase letters and conventional grammar. He was also a Cubist painter and a World War I veteran. At the age of 23, he abandoned his artistic pursuits for voluntary service as an ambulance driver in France. His military career culminated in a comedy of errors leading to his arrest and imprisonment for treason, as he memorably recounts in The Enormous Room.Cummings transforms a tale of unjust incarceration into a high-energy romp and a celebration of the indomitable human spirit that ranks with the best of its contemporaries, including the works of Hemingway and Dos Passos. A fantastic find, and a beautiful copy of this book!Thanks for looking, and good luck if you're bidding!
