I thought that Whitman only wrote poetry but I did look him up after reading the book and found that he wrote novels and did some work at newspapers as well.Carole's Random Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06737905249530702688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2875242362336197892.post-315546192055483332016-03-14T06:55:12.139-05:002016-03-14T06:55:12.139-05:00Before I started reading it, I was dreading this b...Before I started reading it, I was dreading this book but it ended up being fantastic! You don't need to like Whitman at all. There is no poetry in this book at all.

Still curious about this retelling of sort though.

I love the sound of the setting - I had family that lived in that area during that time - and am super curious about seeing Edgar Poe. Definitely adding to my TBRKatherine Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12126062556416434416noreply@blogger.com
