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.
