具体描述
After graduating from Emory University in Atlanta in 1992, top student and athlete Christopher McCandless abandoned his possessions, gave his entire $24,000 savings account to charity and hitchhiked to Alaska, where he went to live in the wilderness. Four months later, he turned up dead. His diary, letters and two notes found at a remote campsite tell of his desperate effort to survive, apparently stranded by an injury and slowly starving. They also reflect the posturing of a confused young man, raised in affluent Annandale, Va., who self-consciously adopted a Tolstoyan renunciation of wealth and return to nature. Krakauer, a contributing editor to Outside and Men's Journal, retraces McCandless's ill-fated antagonism toward his father, Walt, an eminent aerospace engineer. Krakauer also draws parallels to his own reckless youthful exploit in 1977 when he climbed Devils Thumb, a mountain on the Alaska-British Columbia border, partly as a symbolic act of rebellion against his autocratic father. In a moving narrative, Krakauer probes the mystery of McCandless's death, which he attributes to logistical blunders and to accidental poisoning from eating toxic seed pods. Maps. 35,000 first printing; author tour.

读后感
去年暑假看完这部部电影的时候记得自己一句话也说不出来了，今天下午看完了这本书，合上书的时候我却更加地难受。 每个人都有自己成长起来的环境，每个人都对人生有着自己的看法，对于一个从小而且各个方面都极端自制的人，别人就都更不可能改变他自己形成的看法。在他看来人...
评分拿到这本书，最让我不解的是，一名年轻流浪者的经历，如何能让不少记者尾随其踪迹花一两年解开其谜团，让肖恩•潘执著十年等待克里斯父母的允许开拍电影？更重要的是，本书雄踞《纽约时报》畅销书排行榜两年以上，牵动了几百万美国人的心。说到底，克里斯不过是一名不幸的流...
评分If you are old, go by all means, but if you are young, stay away.... The scenery of Alaska is so much grander than anything else of the kind in the world ... it is not well to dull one's capacity for such enjoyment by seeing the finest first. － by Henry G...
评分在一个午夜看完了《荒野生存》的电影。如果是用“阿拉斯加之死”这个名字，我想我的内心不会如此波澜壮阔，“荒野生存”让我充满了希望去度过两个多小时，直到最后一秒，屏幕渐黑，泪眼婆娑，还不愿确认克里斯的死亡。 拿到书的时候，有一点点的失落，因为在我心里，只有一本厚...
评分我的分是打给出版社的(书很不错,力荐) "长踞《纽约时报》畅销书 排行榜两年 同名电影由肖恩 潘 执着十年指导" 拜托这个出版社好不好,这种宣传类的词语能不能单独做个腰封上去的.我还告诉你们,书里面的两页"一切为了您的阅读体验"和读者调查共三页...

挺震动的
评分作者对Chris思想的偏执探求
评分Just read and fell in love with it.
评分看完了整本书里对Chris的描述，觉得他真是生错了时间。他留下的日记是最为宝贵的。多少人能够从他的经历里看到自己的人生呢？
