Escaping civilization, tragic Alaskan wilderness odyssey.

If you're drawn to stories of radical life changes and the unforgiving beauty of nature, "Into the Wild" is an utterly compelling read that satisfies that itch for adventure while soberly reminding us of nature's indifferent might. Krakauer masterfully weaves McCandless's idealistic pursuits with his own reflections on the dangerous allure of the wild. It's both a cautionary tale and a poignant exploration of freedom.
