One of the wisest books by any Western author I have ever read, the other being Meditations by Marcus Aurelius.
I recommend getting the actual book however because the one I have atleast is annotated which greatly helps sorting out Thoreau's numerous subtle references to outside works.

I've never read the book but heard much about it.
Thanks liguhy for uploading.
I'm afraid to say though that the narrator isn't very good. Has a bit of a whiny voice, and tries too hard to be dramatic, when most of the time it isn't called for.

Yeah it's a librivox publication anyways it's free so you can't really expect for quality.

But still decent enough. Though the narrator doesn't control his emotion(sometimes he even chuckles), not totally unlistenable.
