《Finding the Right Temperature for My Heart》 Written by Yeo-ul Jeong│Haenaem Publishing This book is an essay that contains traces of the author Yeo-ul Jeong's contemplation on how to live her own independent, healthy, and eco-friendly life in the city like Henry David Thoreau. The author has long stated that Walden is her 'life book'. It is said that it took her 15 years to write this book. Through the colorful stories told from the author's perspective, it contains content that modern people living in an increasingly harsh reality where ownership and capital are prioritized can look back on their own lives at least once. The author confesses that Walden truly knocked on the door of her heart on the day she first got her own monthly rented room, in a space without a yard or garden where she could communicate with the outside world. The text of the book includes over 70 photos related to Thoreau and the scenery of Concord and Walden Pond, which the author visited in person, adding a vivid sense of presence and interest. Part 1 honestly depicts the values of life that Thoreau pursued, such as passion, courage, solitude, dignity, freedom, resistance, simplicity, healing, and hope, intersecting with the author's own story. Part 2 directly translates and quotes sentences from Walden from four perspectives: living economy, humanities, ethics, and ecology, explaining why Thoreau's words are still relevant to us living in the 21st century. #Jeong Yeo-ul #Walden #TheReadingWoman #Audiobook ※ Please note that this video is a secondary work produced with permission from the copyright holder.
