«Hojas de hierba» is Walt Whitman's poetry collection, published by Alba Editorial in the Grandes Obras de la Literatura series, a 112-page paperback in Spanish.
A landmark of American poetry, in which Whitman celebrates nature, everyday life, and individuality with free, expansive verse. The volume includes a selection of his most representative poems, including «Canto a mí mismo» and «Cruzando el ferry de Brooklyn», in Spanish translation.
This 112-page edition was published in 1997 by Libsa Editorial, though the cover identifies the Grandes Obras de la Literatura series from Alba; the original title is Leaves of Grass (1855).
Recommended for readers approaching Whitman's poetry for the first time and for those seeking a short, affordable edition of his work in Spanish.
Walter Whitman Jr. was an American poet, essayist, and journalist; he also wrote two novels. He is considered one of the most influential poets in American literature and world literature. Whitman incorporated both transcendentalism and realism in his writings and is often called the father of free verse. His work was controversial in his time, particularly his 1855 poetry collection Leaves of Grass, which was described by some as obscene for its overt sensuality.
