Really liked this one! The writing is beautiful, poetic in style. The book is based on a real life event in which Henry David Thoreau and a companion accidentally set the woods outside of Concord on fire. The incident plays as a backdrop to a whole slew of interesting characters and their lives and just makes for a really enjoyable read!
