Hey y'all! It's great to see some of the old crew still here.
@identity, thanks for the post!
Based on articulate input from the literary community and our own new reflections on how best to help Walden remain contemporary, we have decided to forego the adaptation, and instead publish a new hardcover edition of Walden with the original text and annotations tailored for a modern reading experience.
@deathboy, you're right. I revisited that particular passage, and it was one of the factors that made me decide to change scope.
So on Feb 24, we overhauled the campaign. I have no idea if this will work. If the campaign isn't funded (and we have a VERY steep hill to climb in the next 12 days), then at least I'll have learned some very valuable lessons.
