A stage drama of the end of Walt Whitman's life

Judith Grace's Good-bye My Fancy: With Walt Whitman In His Last Days is a stage drama of the end of Walt Whitman's life based upon verbatim transcriptions of conversations he had with his secretary and friend, Horace Traubel. These conversations were faithfully recorded by Traubel who visited Whitman every day at the famed poet's home. Grace also draws upon a selection of poems and letters by Whitman and his friends to create a thoroughly engaging dialogue so skillfully crafted that the reader has a feeling of being there and sharing in the very presence of a great man. Good-bye My Fancy is enthusiastically recommended reading. It can only be hoped that sometime this brilliant dramatization will appear on stage or screen.
