Item Description

In this increasingly maddening, busy world we are often confronted with the dilemma of ethically and emotionally working through the problems we encounter. Using Henry David Thoreau’s ideas as a compass, Jeff Vande Zande has created a parable for adults to help show the way with his novel, Into the Desperate Country. This book is often thought provoking and funny as the author weaves a modern tale of self discovery and redemption. Few writers of fiction are able to meld Thoreauvian ideas into their writing. Vande Zande “gets it,” and gets it right.
—Jim Hayden, Director of Marketing and Public Relations, The Thoreau Society
