Leaves of Grass V2

By Walt Whitman

Book Overview

Leaves of Grass V2 is a collection of poems by the American poet Walt Whitman, originally published in 1855. This second edition, published in 1856, includes many revisions and additions to the original work. The poems in this collection celebrate the beauty of nature, the human body, and the diversity of human experience. Whitman's style is characterized by free verse and a lack of traditional rhyme and meter, which was unconventional at the time. The poems are often deeply personal and explore themes such as love, death, and spirituality. The collection includes some of Whitman's most famous poems, including ""Song of Myself"" and ""I Sing the Body Electric."" Leaves of Grass V2 is considered a seminal work in American literature and a landmark in the development of modern poetry.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1897 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
