NOTE: I read a 600-page version from 1930 that captured pretty much everything  he's  ever written, so my reading experience was definitely  different. 

I mean, it's Walt. Fully worth the hype, though I'll need to parse back through and really drink these poems up, slowly, one by one, when I'm not spending so much attention and curiosity on graduate school. The autobiographical piece at the end was a perfect little bow on the work. I loved hearing what he wanted to do, and itnresonated deeply with my own purpose as a writer.
