Walden

Life in the Woods

De: Henry David Thoreau

Narrado por: Alec Sand

Thoreau's classic account of the solitary life, describing his attempts to simplify his life and sort out his priorities by living alone in a cabin beside Walden Pond for nearly two years, is one of the most influential books ever written. The bible of the environmental movement, Walden vividly portrays Thoreau's reverence for nature, and his understanding of the idea that nature is made up of crucially interrelated parts.Public Domain (P)2006 Trout Lake Media

Buy the book or a different audio version

While the book itself if fantastic, the narrator in this audio version botched it so badly I wanted to wring his neck! He stumbled over and mispronounced so many words that I could only listen in short segments of time.

I didn't care for the narrator

I didn't care for the narrator. If I feel inclined to listen to this story again over reading it, I will buy a different version. This has taught me to listen to a sample prior to purchase.

Wow...

An Honest Look At A Man And The Values He Carries And Supports. No Excuses For Stupidity Or Sloth. A Lazy Man Will Starve Or Freeze Depending On The Season. Written Before 1850 And Still A Look In To The Heart Of Man. Going Back To Read It Again!!!! Now !!!!!!

Relaxing and Simple

A reminder of easy enjoyment. Not a book to take to heart, or very seriously. But the experiment temps you to cull the inefficiencies of modern living and see what more simple experience might appear.

it's a tough one to stay tuned in, but insightful

The story isn't the easiest to follow but it is pretty interesting and has some great quotes
