"Walden ; or Life in the Woods " is the account of the writer's experience when he lived during two years, two months and two days in a cabin in Massachusetts. Thoreau wrote precise scientific observations but also more poetic descriptions of natural phenomena. He gives to the reader his thoughts, the results of his experiments and his speculations. The book is a mix between a novel, an autobiography, a naturalist article and a lampoon against the Western modern society.
