Erstmals 1855 erschienen und von Walt Whitman bis zu seinem Tod 1892 immer wieder bearbeitet und erweitert, stellen die "Grashalme" unzweifelhaft eines der Hauptwerke der amerikanischen Lyrik dar. In seinen "Grashalmen" sprengte Walt Whitman alle damals bestehenden Konventionen durch den Einsatz freier Rhythmen und das Anschlagen eines hymnischen Tons, der das Individuum in seiner kosmischen Dimension wie auch die Demokratie in ihrer Vielstimmigkeit auf eine bis dahin ungelesene und unerhörte Weise feiert.

The book explores what writing and poetry is for a person, for a dyslexic, for a people, and for one's sanity—with themes of growing up, family, hope, and magic." Poetry has always been a part of my life. Before I ever wrote it down… I saw it, or felt it. It was there, but hard to grasp or grab: like Peter’s shadow, or a coy forest nymph…. I’ve since made a sport of chasing poem across blank pages… And instead of leaving muddy footprints, in my wake are left letters and words.
