Desert solitaire
Book • 1968
Desert Solitaire is a collection of vignettes about Edward Abbey's life as a park ranger in Arches National Monument (now Arches National Park) in the 1950s.
The book combines personal anecdotes, philosophical reflections, and a deep appreciation for the natural world.
Abbey discusses his unique adventures, conflicts with development and tourism, and his profound connection to the desert landscape.
The book is often compared to Thoreau's Walden for its introspective and poetic exploration of the human relationship with nature.
