Penthesilea, Raissa, Octavia, Olinda, Eufemia, Perenthia, Ersilia and Baucis. These are my chosen cities from Italo Calvino’s Invisible Cities. In that book, Marco Polo described to the aging Kublai Khan 55 cities in the Great Khan’s empire. Each tale would leave you breathless not for the sights but for the extraordinary dimensions they reveal about a place in an empire’s map.

This was what Henry David Thoreau proved to us when he lived in Walden Pond for two years and left us with his observations of natural life and how they relate to the most important human concerns in his classic book Walden; Or Life in the Woods. But missing his point entirely, I wanted to take my monumental walk, Thoreau-style in Walden Pond itself.
