Sobre IBD

This rare book contains a fictionalised account of the day-to-day life of Walt Whitman, written by May Byron. A fascinating and insight biographical work of the great American poet, this is a book that will greatly appeal to fans of Walt Whitman and constitutes a must-have for collectors of Byron’s seminal work. Mary Clarissa Byron (1861 -1936) was a British poet and writer, best remembered for her abridged version of J. M. Barrie’s Peter Pan. Bryon wrote many fictional day-to-day accounts of the lives of notable poets and writers, famously influencing Joyce’s writing of Ulysses with her book, A Day With William Shakespeare. This book has been elected for modern republication due to its immense literary value in the hope that it will be read and enjoyed for generations to come. We are proud to republish this scarce antiquarian book complete with a new prefatory biography of the author.
