Most of Cummings' work is beyond me, but that's not his fault, I believe. I enjoy reading poetry more for the beauty of the language, how a phrase is turned, more so than to understand. And, perhaps I'm a little too dense as well. This little collection provided many lines I could read aloud and hear the birds singing. At some point in my public school career, I must have read a poem or two by e. e. cummings. Wanting to read more poetry in general, I picked this book up because I remember liking the author, even if I could not remember a single poem of his. I was not disappointed. This volume is organized by the poems’ themes, and each chapter has a nice bit of explanation from the editor at the beginning, which was nice for a poetry amateur like me. While I found the Cubist poems incomprehensible, I enjoyed the playful and natural poems, as well as the love poems. The political poems, on the other hand, I did not enjoy, but then I generally do not like political poems. All in all, I enjoyed this book and would like to read more poetry by this author. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
