About this listen

In Walden & Civil Disobedience, Henry David Thoreau invites us into his world of quiet reflection and moral courage. Walden chronicles his two-year experiment in simple living beside Walden Pond, where he sought independence from materialism and a deeper connection with nature. With vivid observations and timeless wisdom, Thoreau explores themes of solitude, self-reliance, and the true meaning of wealth. In the companion essay Civil Disobedience, he turns from the woods to society, making a passionate case for the individual’s duty to resist unjust laws through peaceful protest. Together, these works form a cornerstone of American thought—at once a meditation on living deliberately and a call to conscience. Narrated by Will Stauff with clarity and warmth, this audiobook brings Thoreau’s enduring insights to life for a modern audience.
