  1. Komal Jain

    I am so glad I finally read this book! It felt like a journey and really got me thinking.!

  2. Brojen Mili

    A must-read for any poetry lover. Whitman’s words are powerful and moving. Hitchens’ intro added value.

  3. Arya Samridhi

    Some poems are beautiful and deeply moving, others didn’t resonate with me. Still a worthwhile read.

  4. Anshika Verma

    Whitman’s words are so beautiful but sometimes the concepts felt a little dated. I still really enjoyed it though!

  5. Dewangana Singh

    I struggled with the language and found it hard to connect with the themes. Not for everyone, perhaps.

  6. Shiv Kumar Rathour

    Found it a bit overwhelming at times, but Whitman’s passion is undeniable. Glad I experienced this classic.

  7. Hitesh Bhatia

    It was good but some parts did drag on a bit. Definitely a classic that is worth reading for yourself!

  8. Vikas

    Hitchens’ intro was brilliant. Whitman’s work, though, felt dated. Still, an important piece of literature.

  9. Anisha Saini

    Challenging but rewarding. Whitman’s celebration of life is infectious, though his style isn’t always easy to grasp.

  10. Arun

    I really loved the introduction by Hitchens. Whitman’s poetry is wonderful. I would highly recommend.

  11. Suchit Lamba

    Whitman is a national treasure. This is a book every American should read at least once in their life!

  12. Aman

    This book just wasn’t for me. It’s a classic, I know, but I found it boring. I couldn’t finish it.

  13. Shubhashish Gupta

    A truly American voice! Whitman’s poems resonate even now. Some poems dragged a bit, hence the missing star.

  14. Thummalapalli Manoj

    Leaves of Grass is a cornerstone of American lit! The Hitchens intro made it even better!

  15. Ankit

    Whitman’s vision is captivating, but sometimes feels rambling. Hitchens’ introduction is insightful. Overall, a classic worth exploring, but be prepared for its length.

  16. Mukul Tyagi

    Not sure if I got the hype. Was okay, but not worth all the praise. Read it if you want, but don’t expect too much.

  17. Sumit Bahuguna

    An epic exploration of the self. Whitman’s language is both grand and intimate. Highly recommend this edition.

  18. Sakshi Mishra

    I was expecting more from such a celebrated work. Some poems are beautiful, others are simply boring.

  19. Dhruv Chandra

    What a great book! I loved the themes that the author brought up and his unique prose. /!

  20. Nitin Aggarwal

    Not my cup of tea. I struggled to connect with Whitman’s style. Others might appreciate it more, though.

  21. Ishaan Raghav

    Whitman’s poems feel alive. Loved the themes of nature and humanity. A few sections were less engaging.
