I read *The Wall* by Marlen Haushofer and in the afterward the author was talking about how men can go out alone in the woods Walden style and no one bats an eye or they admire him, but if a woman does it, there is something wrong with her, or she is unwanted, or she is shirking her responsibilities as a woman to be a caretaker of others.
I’m looking for more books like this because it really resonated with me as someone who enjoys solitude.
To clarify, I want it to be about solitude, not loneliness.
