"Mr. Thoreau Goes to Boston is an eclectic work of literary fiction; it is entertaining, reflective, inspiring, and hilariously funny.
19th Century philosopher, naturalist, and author Henry David Thoreau returns to life in the 21st Century through an anomaly of nature after being dead for 172 years. He promptly walks the 32 miles to Boston where he is arrested in Boston Commons for catching a fish, building a fire and swimming in the nude to clean himself in Boston Commons Park.
Professor and Elizabeth Thornton, a group of friends, and medical and archaeology specialists attempt to solve the mystery of his rebirth. But when the news about Thoreau's immortality gets out, the real action begins. Wealthy individuals, rogue governments, and terrorists pursue the secret with a vengeance.
Mr. Thoreau Goes to Boston expounds on the philosophies, ideas, and opinions of Henry David Thoreau. Through it, Ken Wasil holds up a mirror to our modern society. Discussions of 19th Century writers such as Nathaniel Hawthorne and Louisa May Alcott, historical sites in Boston and Concord, and today's social issues provide a canvas upon which this literary fiction is painted.
The book appeals to students, Thoreau and nature enthusiasts and anyone who enjoys an enthralling action-adventure read.
