Journal of Henry David Thoreau
October 20, 2009
Edwin Frank editor, New York Review Books Classics

Edwin Frank, editor of New York Review Books Classics, talks about The Journal of Henry David Thoreau, recently published by NYRB Classics.
Henry David Thoreau is justly famous for his book Walden, which tells the story of the two years he spent living by the pond, in the Concord woods. But he also wrote a journal, which he started at age 20 in 1837, and kept up until 1861, shortly before he died. This diary of Thoreau’s daily thoughts and experiences was published in November 2009 by New York Review Books Classics, as part of their 10th anniversary celebration.
