When Nazım was thirteen, he broke someone's nose because they had tripped him. When Nazım was fifteen, he got into frequent fights with the school bullies. When Nazım was seventeen, he was expelled from two schools. His life has always been something of a mess. And then things change when the nineteen year old finds out about the dark secret his father has been keeping from his family-a deal between him and a mysterious wealthy young man. A deal that includes a vast amount of money in exchange for something Nazım had always deemed priceless. This deal will have to force him to change from his selfish ways in order to try to bring peace back to the family. And, to a certain extent, himself. But how can he do that if the consequences of not being able to could get him killed?

"Walden, or Life in the Woods, is a reflection upon simple living in natural surroundings. The work is part personal declaration of independence, social experiment, voyage of spiritual discovery, satire, and manual for self-reliance. First published in 1854, it details Thoreau's experiences over the course of two years, two months, and two days in a cabin he built near Walden Pond, amidst woodland owned by his friend and mentor Ralph Waldo Emerson, near Concord, Massachusetts. The book compresses the time into a single calendar year and uses passages of four seasons to symbolize human development."
