"I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived."

Inspiring, brilliantly written, cantankerous and funny - Walden is both a very specific story about one man's attempt to live the simple life in the wilderness, and the great, founding text both for the environmental movement and the entire counter-culture

A new series of twenty distinctive, unforgettable Penguin Classics in a beautiful new design and pocket-sized format, with coloured jackets echoing Penguin's original covers.

  • CAMINAR
    THOREAU, HENRY DAVID
    Caminar és un dels textos més bells de Thoreau. Hi exposa la seva filosofia del caminar, de l'art de fer camí, com la manera més intensa de desvetllar els sentits i l'ànima humana. I arrenca amb una declaració contundent: «Vull dir unes paraules a favor de la Naturalesa, de la llibertat absoluta i de l'estat salvatge». Perquè caminar ens permet retrobar la comunió ancestral, ca...
