The Illustrated Walt Whitman
Description
Lush and evocative, this treasury of Walt Whitman's classic poetry will be a household favourite for generations. Bound and curated, this full-colour collage illustrated beauty will educate young readers while delighting the senses.
Whitman is considered one of the most influential poets in American history. Incorporating both transcendentalism and realism earned him the much lauded title of father of free verse, a form beloved among poets and students today. Whitman's influence remains strong in modern day poetry. Art historian Mary Berenson wrote, 'You cannot really understand America without Walt Whitman'. And modernist poet Ezra Pound called Whitman 'America's poet...he is America'.
Hand selected classics included in this collection include 'O Captain! My Captain!', 'I Hear America Singing', and many other essentials. Brief commentary and helpful definitions accompany each poem, making The Illustrated Walt Whitman among the most accessible and beautiful introductions to Walt Whitman available.
