註釋
Mr. Thoreau Goes to Boston is an eclectic work of Literary Fiction reminiscent of Frankenstein by Mary Shelley. 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. 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 gets out, 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 Wail holds up a mirror to our modern society. Discussions of 19th Century writers such as Nathaniel Hawthorne, historical sites in Boston and Concord, and today?s social issues provide a canvas upon which this literary fiction is painted.
