At Least in the City Someone Would Hear Me Scream: misadventures in search of the simple life, by Wade Rouse, 272 pages
Wade Rouse decided to move to the woods with his partner and live deliberately, much in the manner of Thoreau's Walden. But as Wade is the first to admit, he is the world's most unlikely Thoreau. Through this hilarious memoir, readers watch Wade battle a raccoon with lip gloss, spend $500 on a garden that produces 3 beans, go through tanning withdrawal, and come to a gradual compromise with the wilderness. A good read for anyone who's ever wanted to move to the country but suspected they couldn't live without wi-fi.
