Walden

Walden is the detailed story of the two year period author Henry David Thoreau spent living in a secluded cabin at Walden Pond in Massachusetts. Published 1854, Walden explores the impacts of isolation from society as Thoreau focuses on self-growth and self-sufficiency, living alone with minimal human interaction. Inspired by his transcendentalist philosophy, this book shows Thoreau getting back to the basics of a more natural way of human existence, culminating in an ultimate declaration for individual independence.
