Henry Thoreau’nun tüketici kültürüne yönelttiği ateşli eleştiriler ve daha basit yaşamayı şairane bir şekilde savunması tam da içinde yaşadığımız aşırı tüketim çağına ithaf edilmiş gibi duruyor.

Bu nedenle de yazılarına öylesine göz gezdiren bir okur Thoreau’yu okumaktan kolayca vazgeçebilir. Oysa fikirleri kaçırılmayacak kadar değerlidir. Bu kitap, Thoreau’nun gönüllü sadelik felsefesine derin ancak ulaşılabilir bir kaynak işlevi görmektedir.
