About this listen

At Walden Pond, Henry David Thoreau reflected on simpler living in the natural world. By removing himself from the distractions of materialism, Thoreau hoped to not only improve his spiritual life but also gain a better understanding of society through solitary introspection.

In Walden, Thoreau condenses his two-year, two-month, two-day stay into a single year, using the four seasons to symbolize human development - a cycle of life shared by both nature and man. A celebration of personal renewal through self-reliance, independence, and simplicity, composed for all of us living in “quiet desperation,” Walden is eternal.

Revised edition: Previously published as Walden, this edition of Walden (AmazonClassics Edition) includes editorial revisions.

Orginal classic

You can't reproduce something similar to this, a very different and unique way of thinking and looking at the World which we often see but miss to see. The author questions every belief system of ours from faith, nationality , government, honesty, living, happiness, kindness etc and is like reviewing ourselves deeply with a different lens. Although now and then I felt bored while he narrates the beauty of his surroundings in a really cheesy English which is difficult for meto comprehend, you won't regret this read.
