Walden Pond (Recommended Chinese Reading Series)

"Walden" is a record of the American writer Thoreau who lived alone by Walden Pond, describing what he saw, heard and thought during more than two years. The first feature that distinguishes this work from previous literary works is its detailed description and extension of nature. The changes in scenery caused by the changing of the seasons, as well as the fight between two ants, are all vividly reproduced in Thoreau's wonderful pen, and the descriptions are not superficial, but have the precision of a naturalist.
