Podcast: Introducing E.E. Cummings. Reading poetry

The poet's selfportrait

Let's meet E.E. Cummings

Here we can see a draft of his poem Maggie and  Milly and  Molly and May written and corrected by the artist. It is a popular poem in English literature, in fact I came across it in the "Oxford Treasure of Classic Poems". It is often performed by singers and actors. Here you can hear my performance and then compare with the others. Apart from writing Cummings was also a painter.

E.E. Cummings

My knowledge of E.E. Cummings has just ocurred by chance. In fact, I was looking for a narration or poem related to travelling when I found this little video for children and this performance for the BBC radio. Finding these new things is also a trip, so I have taken it and enjoyed it with the same joy and passion I enjoy visiting new places. Hope you enjoy it, too.
