No, but I saw a pretty good play at my school about Thoreau. It was called "The Night Thoreau Spent in Jail." I would recommend it. Judging from the play, I would be very interested in reading "Walden"; maybe I'll add it to my wish list for the holidays.

Yes. This is one of my favorite books. It is his thoughts and account of his 2 years at Walden Pond in Massachusetts, compressed into one calendar year. There some great stuff about not letting economic activity dominate your life. Walden is a concrete expression of what Emerson writes about in his essays.
