Best Selling Books by Edward Abbey

A pictorial exposition of the natural wonders that fashion the Utah wilderness, supplemented by personal thoughts on the reasons for its conservation.

Jonathan Troy is a brilliant, beautiful, intensely romantic, selfish and irresponsible (but never impossible) hero. Despite his youth, he is a born leader who, like a colossus, dominates the people who come into his life, whether they have sought him out or have been sought after by him. There is his lonely, one-eyed father whose radical activity for the Industrial Workers of the World leads to a shattering climax in which Jonathan knows his own fidelity has somehow been vitally involved. There is Etheline, whose body is irresistibly attractive-and whom Jonathan successfully seduces. There is Leafy who inspires his love and alone can discipline him. There is Feathersmith, the effeminate teacher, who encourages Jonathan''s sensitivity to the poetic, and Fatgut, the pathological liar, who is foil both for Jonathan''s friendship and his rage. In a way, Jonathan betrays them all, but his greatest, final betrayal is perhaps of himself. Edward Abbey writes with perception that measures the mood and experiences of his characters in every dimension. Beneath the facade of callous brutality lies the real Jonathan, finely sensitive and introspective. The author never loses touch with this spirit on Jonathan''s quest, and the cumulative effect becomes overwhelming. This harsh, powerful, disturbing story is an extraordinary achievement for any novel, much less a first one. About the author Edward Abbey was born in Indiana County, Pennsylvania, in 1927. Eight months before his 18th birthday, when he would be faced with being drafted into the U.S. Military, Abbey decided to explore the American southwest. He traveled by foot, bus, hitchhiking, and freight train hopping. His best-known works include Desert Solitaire, a non-fiction autobiographical account of his time as a park ranger at Arches National Park considered to be an iconic work of nature writing and a staple of early environmentalist writing; the novel The Monkey Wrench Gang, which has been cited as an inspiration by environmentalists and groups defending nature by various means, also called eco-warriors. JONATHAN TROY was begun as a creative writing project and is Edward Abbey''s first novel.

Ce livre, un des plus beaux inspirés par le désert américain, est un chant d''amour à la sauvagerie du monde. C''est aussi un terrible coup de colère : après avoir connu la vie solitaire et sauvage dans un coin perdu de l''Utah, l''auteur revient dix ans plus tard pour découvrir que, là aussi, le " progrès " est passé. " Un chef-d''œuvre... Edward Abbey est le gardien du monde " (Yves Berger, La Pierre et le Saguaro). " Le Thoreau de l''Ouest américain " (Larry Mc Murtry).

Tom Miller''s photographs of the Colorado Plateau offer a unique view of a remarkable landscape. His delicate black-&-white images emphasize texture & tactility rather than massive form or saturated color. Here, the Plateau emerges as a place of secrets & subtlety; its past a prologue. Further enhancing the dream quality of these images is the fact that most were taken from the air, a vantage that renders meaningless such distinctions as "rightside up" & "upside down." The abstracting height from which these pictures were made allows us to view the Colorado Plateau as a place where unexpected things occur & unexpected thoughts are experienced. "Perhaps nowhere is the basic structure of the earth''s surface so clearly, because so nakedly, revealed. And yet--when all we know about it is said & measured & tabulated, there remains something in the soul of the place, the spirit of the whole, that cannot be fully assimilated by the human imagination."--from the opening essay by Edward Abbey.
