520    "An incisive biography of E. E. Cummings's early life 
       explores his World War I ambulance service, which inspired
       his inventive poetry. Renowned for his formally fractured,
       gleefully alive poetry, E. E. Cummings is not often 
       thought of as a war poet. But his experience as a prisoner
       during the war in La Ferté-Macé (the basis for his first 
       work of prose, The Enormous Room), and his first love, the
       French prostitute Marie Louise Lallemand, escalated his 
       earliest breaks with conventional form-the innovation with
       which his name would soon become synonymous. The Beauty of
       Living follows Cummings from his Cambridge upbringing and 
       Harvard education through his time at the front during the
       Great War. Probing an under-examined yet formative time in
       the poet's life, this deeply researched account 
       illuminates his ideas about love, justice, humanity, and 
       brutality. Cummings scholar J. Alison Rosenblitt weaves 
       together letters, journal entries, and sketches with 
       astute analyses of poems that span Cummings's career, 
       revealing the origins of one of the twentieth century's 
       most famous poets"--|cProvided by publisher.
