Reviews

"Edward Abbey's books remain an indispensable solace. His essays, and his novels, too, are 'antidotes to despair.'" --Wendell Berry What entertains many and exasperates others is Abbey's unique prose voice. Alternatingly misanthropic and sentimental, engaged and hilarious, it is the voice of a full-blooded man airing his passions.
-- Peter Carson, People magazine.
