"Into the Wild" tells the true story of Christopher McCandless, a recent college graduate who rejected his privileged upbringing and job prospects to live a solitary life traveling the American West. What Chris lacks in experience and humility, he makes up for in determination and foolhardiness. His insatiable desire to find meaning and value in life eventually leads him to the Alaskan wilderness, where seemingly innocent mistakes are magnified by the harsh conditions. Though I love this book for its romanticism of America's last frontier, Jon Krakauer's knack for narrative nonfiction ultimately kept e coming back for more.
