Walden: Walden is a reflection upon simple living in natural surroundings. The work is part personal declaration of independence, social experiment, voyage of spiritual discovery, satire, and manual for self-reliance. It is a journal of the 2 years, 2 months and 2 days that Thoreau has spent in the woods. The simple and fresh book tells us what he finds in his experimental life of going back to nature—if a man is contented with a simple life, he can enjoy it more.(瓦尔登湖：《瓦尔登湖》记录了作者隐居瓦尔登湖畔，与大自然融为一体，在田园生活中感知自然、重塑自我的奇妙历程。本书是梭罗在瓦尔登湖林中两年零两个月又两天的生活和思想记录。这是一本清新、健康、引人向上的书，它向世人揭示了作者在回归自然的生活实验中所发现的人生真谛—如果一个人能满足于基本的生活所需，其实便可以更从容、更淡定地享受人生。)
