Book description
En 1845, Thoreau construyó una pequeña cabaña junto al lago Walden. Su idea era procurarse sus propios recursos y vivir de la manera más simple y pura posible, como un asceta, dedicándose a escribir para ser un poeta de la naturaleza. En su cabaña tenía tres sillas: "una para la soledad, otra para la amistad, y una tercera para la sociedad". Permaneció ahí durante dos años, que sirvieron de inspiración para su obra maestra, Walden, un canto a la libertad del hombre y la vida en los bosques. In 1845, Thoreau built a small cabin by Lake Walden. His idea was to procure his own resources and live in the simplest and purest way possible, as an ascetic, dedicating himself to writing to be a poet of nature. In his cabin he had three chairs: "one for loneliness, another for friendship, and a third for society." He stayed there for two years, which served as the inspiration for his masterpiece, Walden, a hymn to the freedom of man and life in the woods.
