Life is hard, whether you live out in the wilderness or you live in a city, with vastly different challenges. It is easy to romanticise a life without technology, money and like the days of old, however, Mark Boyle takes us through a diary like insight into his life, and it is beautiful. Life and its meaning seems to change throughout the book for Mark over a single year, and it is inspiring to see, and it makes one want to change for the better, fighting capitalism in yet another beautiful way.
