About This Novel
This book is a unique lakeside narrative that explores the relationship between man and nature. It is the culmination of Thoreau's two years of living by Walden Pond. In this large prose, Thoreau described in detail his frugal life in the woods, the beautiful nature in his heart, and his wise thinking. He observes nature in detail and records vivid animals, plants and scenery of the four seasons in a natural, smooth and poetic writing style. Many beautiful natural pictures often move readers. The literary master F. S. Fitzgerald once said: "After reading Thoreau's articles, I realized how much I had lost by living away from nature!" "Walden" was published more than a hundred years ago and is still regarded as a classic. Thoreau lived in a society of industrial civilization, but opposed the mainstream culture of the time. The "simple, independent and noble life" he pursued is now regarded as a model of the ecological protection movement, and this book is also regarded as the "green Bible". The translator spent several years polishing the translation and included old woodcut prints.
