Leaves of Grass by Walt Whitman is a seminal work of American poetry that revolutionized literary expression with its bold, free verse and celebration of the individual. First published in 1855 and expanded throughout Whitman’s life, the collection explores themes of democracy, nature, the body, sexuality, and the spiritual interconnectedness of all things. Whitman’s innovative style—marked by long, flowing lines and a candid, expansive voice—broke from traditional poetic forms and embodied the democratic ideals of a young, evolving America. Central to the work is the poet’s persona, often seen as a stand-in for Whitman himself, who invites readers into an intimate and universal experience. Leaves of Grass continues to resonate for its visionary embrace of humanity and its unapologetic affirmation of life. The dust jacket is torn and missing the backstrip. Slipcase damaged and missing the top panel. Some slight rubbing, else in very good condition.
