It's about a man who doesn't find him self in normal society, after graduating from college he gives away his possessions and life savings and hitch hikes to Alaska. The story shows how his family changes from the lose of him (he never told them, though his sister has a good idea what happened), and about his adventure to Alaska.

The story never bothers answering if he was right or wrong to do so I enjoyed that. I'm going to get the book today!

I heard it was very depressing. Would you say that's true?

If you see the ending for more then what happens then no. That's the best answer I can give, useally it would be depressing but it really was beautifle!
