e. e. CuMMings 1894 – 1962, american The Enormous Room Edited with an Introduction and Glossary by Samuel Hynes Drawn from Cummings’s unexpected confinement in a World War I French concentration camp, this rambunctious modern story reflects the essential paradox of his experience: to lose everything— all comforts, possessions, all rights and privileges—is to become free, and so to be saved. 384 pp. 978-0-14-118124-0 $16.00 “When a book like The Enormous Room manages to emerge from the morass of print we flounder in, it is time to take off your new straw hat and jump on it.” —j o h n d o s passos quintus Curtius ruFus c. 1st cent. a.d., Roman The History of Alexander Translated by John Yardley with an Introduction and Notes by Waldemar Heckel This history of Alexander’s life provides by far the most plausible and haunting portrait of him: a brilliantly realized image of a man ruined by constant good fortune in his youth. 352 pp. 978-0-14-044412-4 $16.00 64 Penguin ClassiCs riChard henry dana, jr. 1815 – 1882, american Two Years Before the Mast A Personal Narrative of Life at Sea Edited with an Introduction and Notes by Thomas Philbrick Dana’s account of his passage as a common seaman from Boston around Cape Horn to California, and back, is a remarkable portrait of the seagoing life.

At twenty, he married Gemma Donati, by whom he had four children. He had first met his muse Bice Portinari, whom he immortalized as Beatrice, in 1274, and when she died in 1290 he sought distraction by studying philosophy and theology and by writing La Vita Nuova. During this time he became involved in the strife between the Guelfs and the Ghibellines, becoming a prominent White Guelf. When the Black Guelfs came to power in 1302 Dante was condemned to exile. He took refuge first in Verona and after wandering from place to place, as far as Paris, he settled in Ravenna. There he completed The Divine Comedy, which he had begun in about 1308, if not later. Dante died in Ravenna in 1321.
