A review by cedrisc
Into the Wild by Jon Krakauer

3.0

I didn't enjoy the book as much as the movie, but I like how the author tied in his own experiences. I can understand the dreamy part of Chris wanting to experience the 'wild', but my practical side would want to have a map or a phone in case of emergency. It is sad that he wasn't able to walk back out and touch more people, and that he didn't make contact with his family. Maybe he did forgive them for their failings at the end. It is funny how as you grow older, black and white fades to shades of grey.
