I love Jon Krakauer books but this one particularly hits a nerve. Most people look at Christopher Mccandless and heedles reckless idiot but As I have said on my FB account he made an educated descision based on his Circumstances and it should not be repeated by 20 something wanna be's which Unfortunately is something that is trying to be repeated. I have watched the movie and that's what prompted me to read the book. It is incredibly powerful book of what it means to live, what happens when we take our parents mistakes and indisgression too close to heart and the Human will to carve out an identity separate from the Band wagon.
