Over dit audioboek

Walt Whitman, the "father of free verse," redefined American poetry with his groundbreaking work Leaves of Grass. Born in 1819 in West Hills, New York, Whitman’s writing celebrated the beauty of nature, individuality, and democracy, offering a bold and optimistic vision of life. This biography explores his career as a journalist, his role as a nurse during the Civil War, and his deeply humanistic poems that broke conventional literary boundaries. Whitman’s themes of equality, love, and spirituality resonated with readers and influenced generations of poets. Despite facing controversy for his candid and experimental style, his work became a cornerstone of American literature. This book celebrates Whitman’s creative genius, his progressive ideas, and his enduring legacy as a poet who captured the spirit of America and the human experience.
