With their call for "simplicity, simplicity, simplicity!”, for self-honesty, and for harmony with nature, the writings of Henry David Thoreau are perhaps the most influential philosophical works in all American literature.
The selections in this volume represent Thoreau at his best. Included in their entirety are Walden, his indisputable masterpiece, and his two great arguments for nonconformity, Civil Disobedience and Life Without Principle. A lifetime of brilliant observation of nature--and of himself--is recorded in selections from A Week On The Concord And Merrimack Rivers, Cape Cod, The Maine Woods and The Journal.
I say, beware of all enterprises that require new clothes, and not rather a new wearer of clothes. ... All men want, not something to do with, but something to do, or rather something to be. (查看原文)

给不出高的评价并非因为此书写得不好，而是我的水平不够，英文版完全达不到理解的水准，中文版也只能囫囵吞枣。对于这样深刻的作品，不读原版，我始终不认为自己算是读过。

想起了家乡的恒山草堂； 美国的陶渊明； 挥一挥衣袖，逃离城市的冲动。
