In print continuously since 1922, The Enormous Room is one of the
classic American literary works to emerge from World War I, in a
grouping that includes John Dos Passo's Three Soldiers and
Hemingway's A Farewell to Arms. Drawing on his experiences in
France as a volunteer ambulance driver, Cummings takes us through a
series of mistakes that led to his being arrested for treason and
sent to prison. Out of this episode Cummings produced a unique work
a story of oppression, injustice, and imprisonment presented in a
high-spirited manner as if it were a lark, a work of new linguistic
energy that celebrates the individual and opposes all structures
that stifle him. This edition restores to the work much material
that was deleted from the manuscript for the book's 1922
publication and is illustrated with drawings Cummings made while
imprisoned in France."
