Many years ago, the prodigious and famously prolific E. E. Cummings sat in his study writing and thinking about sex. His private brooding gave way to poems and drawings of sexual and romantic love that delight and provoke. Here, collected for the first time in a single volume, are those erotic poems and sketches, culled from Cummings's original manuscripts by the distinguished editor George James Firmage.
