Leaves of Grass

Meer over het boek

The book features a facsimile of the original 1855 edition of a groundbreaking poetry collection known for its explicit themes and bold style. Initially met with criticism, it has since become a cornerstone of American literature. Whitman's lifelong dedication to revising this work resulted in numerous editions, evolving from twelve poems to over 400. This reproduction preserves the original typography and layout, aiming to convey the essence of Whitman's poetic vision as he intended.
