Book Reviews of Leaves of Grass (Bantam Classics)Book Review: Relevant for our time Summary: 5 Stars
Walt Whitman's poetry, read in the context of the political and economic climate of the US today, gives us a perspective we seem to be unable to see. The purity of his writings on America might bridge the schisms we face as a country. Beautiful and powerful.

Book Review: American classic in every aspect Summary: 5 Stars
This collection of poems proves beyond a doubt that Whitman is one of the greatest poets ever to live. The touching and personnal nature of these poems is sure to strike a cord in you. Whitman's voice is the voice of America. These poems are simply wonderous.
Book Review: This is it Summary: 5 Stars
If you read only one peice of American literature this should be it. Whitman is a true Amercian. He feels the way we feel and he has seen the things we see. No matter who you are you will you think that he has read your mind...only in no so modern english.
Book Review: Outstanding read! Summary: 5 Stars
I've always been a fan of Walt Whitman and Leaves of Grass has a poem that everyone can relate to. It has all the hope and romance of every individual young and old but also the strife and sadness we all experience. I take it everywhere I go!
Book Review: Transcendental Experience Summary: 5 Stars
I can't say much about Leaves of Grass except that it is a monumental work which will influence any one who opens themselves up to it. This book changed my state of mind more than any other work of literature I have been exposed to.
