Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is an enthralling and unique account of a manââ â¢s journey from a disappointed youth in Scotland to his life as a hermit in the American wilderness. The author, who identifies himself only as John Smith, weaves a narrative filled with both the stark beauty of his adopted landscape and the poignant reflection of his own past. The book explores the concept of the hermit, a figure deeply rooted in history and religion, and situates this tradition within the authorââ â¢s own personal experience. John Smithââ â¢s story is one of seeking solace from the world and finding it in a secluded cave, where he finds himself surrounded by the natural world, the simple pleasures of his surroundings, and the occasional company of visitors who come to marvel at his life of quietude. While the bookââ â¢s focus is on the authorââ â¢s own journey and his perspective on the life of a hermit, it provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of early 19th century Scotland, its social customs and class distinctions. The book reveals how John Smith, despite his initial aspiration to escape the world, finds himself engaging with a variety of people who, in their own way, become a part of his solitary life. The reader is invited to witness how John Smith's experience with the natural world, the world of people, and the world of his own thoughts, ultimately leads him to a profound acceptance of his place in the world and a deep appreciation for the solitude he has chosen.
