I bought this book yesterday. It's premise speaks to me, the writers it quotes speaks to me. Mainly Walt Whitman and Leaves of Grass.
I thought it would be more about actual wandering, since I love taking long walks and think about things or to not think at all, but to feel.
But I must say I'm quite disappointed. It's covered in such a pretentious sauce of a secret society and shit. I don't want or need that. But still it speaks to me on some level.
Is Walt Whitman any good? Do I just need to read him? Also Henry David Thoreau.
On some level I feel ashamed that stuff like this speaks to me and some quotes can render me to tears. But I have to accept that that is what I need apparently.
Please help.
