Review of 'Leaves of Grass' on 'Storygraph'

5 stars

I've read excerpts from Song of Myself many times. But this was the first time I could read all 52 stanzas. Whitman contains the multitudes. There's probably on line in each one of the 52 that you could discuss for hours.

It's also helpful to see all his other poems and understand that Song of Myself didn't come out of no where.
