Synopsis

E. E. Cummings, one of the twentieth century's most widely read poets, delivers a brilliantly eccentric autobiography through a series of 'nonlectures' at Harvard. Declining traditional critical analysis, Cummings instead offers a kaleidoscopic journey through his life, influences, and favorite poems, including selections of his own work. He shares an autobiographical sketch of his youth, reflections on formative relationships, and musings on a dizzying array of subjects from freedom to New York and Paris.
