“[An] incisive, personal mediation.” —New York Times Book Review Mark Doty has always felt haunted by Walt Whitman’s perennially new American voice, and by his equally radical claims about body and soul. In What Is the Grass, Doty effortlessly blends biography, criticism, and memoir to keep company with Whitman and his Leaves of Grass, tracing the resonances between his own experience and the legendary poet’s life and work.

The Complete Works of Walt Whitman offers readers a comprehensive collection of poetry and prose by one of America's most influential writers of the 19th century. Known for his free verse style and celebration of individualism and democracy, Whitman's works explore themes of identity, nature, and the human experience. His writings reflect the literary context of transcendentalism and romanticism, with a focus on the beauty of the natural world and the inner workings of the human soul. This collection includes famous works such as 'Leaves of Grass' and 'Song of Myself', showcasing Whitman's lyrical and introspective writing style. Walt Whitman, often called the 'Bard of Democracy', was inspired by his own experiences as a poet, journalist, and volunteer nurse during the Civil War. His unique perspective on American life and his belief in the power of the individual are evident throughout his works. Whitman's dedication to capturing the essence of the American spirit makes his writings a crucial part of the nation's literary history. I highly recommend The Complete Works of Walt Whitman to readers interested in exploring the beauty and depth of American poetry. Whitman's timeless reflections on humanity and the natural world continue to resonate with readers today, offering profound insights into the human condition and the power of self-expression.
