The Enormous Room (Xist Classics) by
e.e. cummings
memoir of 4 months spent in a French prison during WWI
"By the way, a gendarme assured me this is not a prison."
While e.e. cummings would later become famous for his poetry, The Enormous Room (1922) is an interesting and absurd record of his time spent as a prisoner during World War I. Cummings uses ironic humor and poetic language to twist his experience, exploring the familiar horrors of war in a new way.
