Our new Cummings at Silver Lake website and blog are intended to celebrate the people and places which inspired and informed the art and poetry of Edward Estlin Cummings, known throughout the world of letters as “e e cummings”.

The culmination of our efforts will be the Cummings at Silver Lake Weekend July 10 and 11, 2015.  Please join the Friends of Madison Library as we open the window on E. E. Cummings at Silver Lake.

In the meantime, skip around, check out our site and please let us know what you think. Do you know these people and places?
