{"product_id":"9780486131337","title":"Selected Poems","description":"In his unconventional verse, Walt Whitman spoke in a powerful, sensual, oratorical, and inspiring voice. His most famous work, \u003ci\u003eLeaves of Grass,\u003c\/i\u003e was a long-term project that the poet compared to the building of a cathedral or the slow growth of a tree. During his lifetime, from 1819 to 1892, it went through nine editions. Today it is regarded as a landmark of American literature.\u003cbr\u003eThis volume contains 24 poems from \u003ci\u003eLeaves of Grass,\u003c\/i\u003e offering a generous sampling of Whitman's best and most representative verses. Featured works include \"I Hear America Singing,\" \"I Sing the Body Electric,\" \"Song of the Open Road,\" \"Out of Cradle Endlessly Rocking,\" \"When Lilacs Last in the Dooryard Bloom'd,\" and \"O Captain! My Captain!\"—all reprinted from an authoritative text.","brand":"Dover Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47119880028400,"sku":"9780486131337","price":3.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780486131337_p0.jpg?v=1763708122","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780486131337","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
