Book review

Anyone who reads Walden is fascinated by Thoreau's state of life by a strong resonance. Especially now, driven by ever-increasing material desires, each of us, like Sisyphus in Greek mythology, repeats the act of "pushing the boulder" forever and hopelessly—we are driven by desire while constantly increasing our own desires. At a time when the freedom and happiness of most people have almost been lost, it is time to pause and reflect: Why has our life become so desperate? Is there any way to change this?
