Unabridged.
Called by literary critic Mark van Doren "the most original and passionate American poet," Walt Whitman (1819-1892) created a body of verse uniquely his own-unconventional, lacking rhyme or meter employing chanted lists of names and objects-but also powerfuk, sensual, oratorical and inspiring. His most famous work-Leaves of Grass-was a lifelong prohect Whitman compared to the building of cathedral or the slow cumulative growth of a tree. During his lifetime the book (actually a series of books) went through nine editions, between 1855 and 1892. Today, it is considered a landmark of American literature. This volume contains 24 poems from Leaves of Grass, offering readers a generous sampling of Whitman's best and most representative poems.
