Specifications
"Leaves of Grass" is the brilliant collection of poems by Walt Whitman, first published in 1855 and revised and enriched throughout his life. It was innovative in terms of its subject matter and its direct, no-frills style. It is part of the bibliotheca Macmillan Collector’s Library, a series of stunning, clothbound pocket-sized classics with gold foiled edges and ribbon markers. These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a special treat for any book lover. This edition is edited and introduced by Professor Bridget Bennett. Whitman wrote about the United States and its people, their revolutionary spirit, and democracy. He wrote openly about the body and desire in a way that completely broke with tradition and paved the way for an entirely new form of poetry. This new collection is derived from the final version, the Deathbed Edition, and includes his most famous poems such as ‘Song of Myself’ and ‘I Sing the Body Electric’.
