A propos de cet article

Finely bound in woven chocolate-colored cloth stamped brightly in silver on the front boards and the spine. Very clean and tight throughout, virtually unread. This copy has been inscribed and signed by Cummings and his companion Marion: "Wishing Willard + Georgiana Trask a Happy New Year 1958 Marion(in her hand) + E.E. Cummings (in his hand), all in dark black ink. In the same color ink it appears that Cummings has written "(*)= spotlight" on the Synopsis page. A superb copy of this delightful association between the Cummings and the Trasks. Williard R. Trask was a distinguished literary scholar and translator of French, Spanish, Portuguese, German, and Italian. He was also a friend and literary advisor to e.e. cummings. He and his wife Georgiana were friends of e.e. cummings and his companion Marion Moorhouse, a professional model who became cummings' companion and who was buried beside him with the marker, "Marion Morehouse Cummings, 1906-1969."(UUHS) The first edition (one of 1,500 copies) published by Arrow Editions in 1935.
