I to Myself: Thoreau and His Journal

When: Wednesday, October 29 at 7 PM

Jeffrey Cramer has spent more than twenty year immersed in the writings of Thoreau. He will discuss what he has come to appreciate and understand about this complex American writer and icon. The man at Walden Pond was only one small aspect of Thoreau’s life. Learn why many contemporary nature writers have left Walden behind to find a different man in Thoreau’s Journal. Discover how Thoreau wrote, how he used his Journal, and hear excerpts from his Journal that will introduce you to a very different Henry David Thoreau.
