A National Public Reading of “Crossing Brooklyn Ferry”
A national public reading of Whitman’s sweeping meditation on time, our interconnectedness, and the transcendent power of art. The project is both an engaging introduction to Whitman and an opportunity to respond to the question at the heart of the poem: “What is it then between us?”
