Here i would like to share my review about the book 'Walden' written by Henry David Thoreu which i read in September. It is First published in 1854.
it translated in Gujrati by Sundarji betai.
it is not any novel or short stories collection but it is a collection of david's personal diary. which he wrote during he living near the walden. very firstly i would like to say that walden is not any person's name but it A name pond which is situated near the Concord, Massachusetts. He went there for two years. and what he feel day by day he wrote down.
David living very simply there. no facilities he wants to use. he ownself decided that he won't eat nonvege. and he started farming around the cabin which he build and where he lived for two year.
- He asks us that if person starts to work by his ownself than he will not suffer a lot. he is giving all d count that what he need during that living. he also mentions students of America that Students paying lots of fees for living yet they don't get Good house or room. instead of paying them they should build their own cabin. this book is written in 18th century it means at that time students situation were same. Here i would remark that david saying one should start building his own house or cabin i think there is no extra large space where students can also build their own cabin. or no students can live in jungle because there is no facilities of Education in jungle.
- than david telling about spirituality. and also presented his high thinking of Existentialism. he had wrote shloks of 'GIta'. and followed it.
He said that he started to living as nonvegetarian. but its too difficult to live without nonveg . he described one incident about that when he was returning from jungle to his cabin it was late night and he was too much hungry. and there he saw one bird named "wood chuck' he wanted it to Eat withot cook. but he controlled himself. he thought about living being. he don't want to kill anyone.
- in this way he wanted us to tell that a human can live without luxury.
This book is very lengthy. when we read it we like how monotonously action are repeated .
we feel that its gum type of book. i face too much trouble to finish it because it doesn't provide any interesting story.
But when we go through whole the chapters and line by line ...we feel that....be wrote 4 or 5 line and than he applied his high thought. Normally people can't understand it.
