Christopher McCandless expressed these views throughout the book exhibiting his detestation towards the upper and middle class. For example, shortly afore leaving to go on a solo road trip he repined to Carine about his parents buying him a car and verbalized “I’m going to have to be authentic conscientious not to accept any gifts from them in the future because they will cerebrate they have bought my respect”. This withal explicates why he gave the rest of his college mazuma to OXFAM America because he wanted to prove that riches are dispensable. Homogeneous to Chris McCandless noetic conceptions of the riches of life, Henry David Thoreau once verbalized that, “The nation itself, with all its soi-disant internal ameliorations, which, by the way are all external and superficial, is just such an unwieldy and overgrown establishment, cluttered with furniture and tripped up by its own traps, ruined by luxury and heedless expense, by want of calculation and a worthy aim, as the million households in the land”.

After leaving a McDonald’s job with poor temperament, he decided to stay in the Charlie’s camping trailer for only a little while afore he received “itchy feet”. Adscititiously, Henry David Thoreau similarly relished being just far enough from society that he wouldn’t be bothered by anyone. This is shown when he verbally expresses, “The authentic magnetizations of the Hollowell farm, to me, were: its consummate retirement, being, about two miles from the village, half a mile from the most proximate neighbor, and disunited from the highway by a broad field.” Consequently, his views toward turning his back on a civilized life and relishing a simple life in the country were pellucid. Both views are homogeneous in the way that they both desire peregrinating by themselves in the
