Synopsis

A deluxe edition of Henry David Thoreau’s groundbreaking environmentalist masterpiece, including an introduction and annotations by renowned social and environmental critic Bill McKibben

A Beacon Classics edition, featuring spot gloss cover and retro, classic palette


First published in 1854, Henry David Thoreau’s Walden has influenced generations of readers and continues to inspire and inform anyone with an open mind, a love of nature, and a longing for simplicity and contemplation. Recounting the author’s reflections on simple living after a period he spent in a small cabin he built near Walden Pond, the book places Thoreau firmly in his role as cultural and spiritual seer.

Bill McKibben offers both an intelligent and captivating introduction and a body of insightful annotations to Thoreau’s original edition. He addresses two philosophical questions posed by Thoreau: “How much is enough?” and, “How do I know what I want?”, to draw meaningful connections between Thoreau's writing and our lived experience in the 21st century.

This beautiful hardcover edition is more accessible and relevant than ever in an age of technological change and ecological crisis.
