Pretty good 100 pages in but i'm starting to find his main characters a bit annoyingly educated and arty, and smug
"Walden" is sooo good that I just bought a copy of it for my Gran. Everyone should read it!
couldnt get into walden,all that olde english put me off a bit,would like to try again though.currently reading:china friend or foe,apparently we got nothing to fear from them.but fear itself.
Really, I dunno, I thought that for a book written 150 years ago the english was fairly modern - with just the odd outmoded word (like Pantaloon's - great word!) thrown in.
The first section, where he is discussing the things that he doesn't like about society, really could be written now. House-prices, fashion, the true value of the advice of the elderly - all his comments there are still so relevant.
