Lucy’s review of “Desert Solitaire”
Check out my other half’s review of Ed Abbey’s “Desert Solitaire” on the Anglo-Israeli environmentalist site Green Prophet”. Quote:
Abbey’s book is, however, more than just nature writing at its finest (a definition he personally hated); it is an urgent call to defend the canyon lands from encroaching development. For Abbey “Desert Solitaire” is both a memorial to “places already gone or going under fast” and “a tombstone or a bloody rock” to be hurled defiantly at “something big and glassy” such as the windows of a corporate headquarters.
