OPEN THE HEART of Self-Discovery through the Life and Amazing Works of Walt Whitman<br><br>Walt Whitman was known as the &quot;Good Gray Poet&quot; who paved the way for modern American poetry. The epithets &quot;good&quot; and &quot;gray&quot; make Whitman sound dull to the modern reader, yet Whitman was anything but dull. <br><br>In &quot;Whitman&#39;s Self: Mysticism in the Life and Writings of Walt Whitman,&quot; Paul Hourihan explores how Whitman&#39;s spiritual revelations and struggles informed his most significant works&mdash;especially his ground-breaking poem &quot;Song of Myself.&quot; &quot;Whitman&#39;s Self&quot; contains insightful and provocative interpretations of Whitman&#39;s writing that will intrigue those who know Walt Whitman well … as well as those who are just getting introduced to him. <br><br>&quot;At a time like this, Dr. Hourihan performs a valuable service by his courageous reaffirmation of what is of permanent value in the life and works of one of the most original minds in American literature.&quot; – Dr. V. K. Chari, author of &quot;Whitman in the Light of Vedantic Mysticism&quot;
