Walden, or Life in the Woods

«Walden, or Life in the Woods» by Henry David Thoreau — a classic of world philosophical literature. At the age of 27, the author deliberately withdrew from a society obsessed with the pursuit of wealth and settled in a cabin by Walden Pond. He lived alone for two years, two months, and two days, obtaining everything he needed through his own labor. This autobiographical book is a bold experiment on oneself and an invitation to reconstruct life. It inspires minimalism, asceticism, and the ability to hear one's inner voice. Together with Thoreau, the reader will learn to distinguish what is truly important from what is imposed and will acquire a philosophy of independent existence.
