He rides a feisty chestnut mare across the New West a once beautiful land now smothered beneath airstrips and superhighways. An "anarchist cowboy," he lives by a personal code of ethics that sets him on a collision course with the keepers of law and order. After a prison breakout plan goes awry, he finds himself and his horse, Whisky, pursued across the desert towards the mountains that lead to Mexico, and to freedom. With local law enforcement, the feds, and the military on their tails, the cowboy and his horse race towards their destiny."

  • Black Sun

    BasicBinding: Paperback

    Author: Abbey, Edward

    Publisher: Harper Perennial

    Date Published: 10-2014

    ISBN: 0062323741 | EAN: 9780062323743

    BasicBinding: Paperback

    Features: Price on Product, Table of Contents | Pages: 192

    Annotation:

    Now in a Harper Perennial Modern Classics edition, the timeless novel that chronicles a reckless romance in the wilderness, from Edward Abbey, one of America s foremost defenders of the natural environment.

    Black Sun is a bittersweet love story involving an iconoclastic forest ranger and a freckle-faced American princess half his age. Like Lady Chatterley s lover, he initiates her into the rites of sex and the stark, secret harmonies of his wilderness kingdom. She, in turn, awakens in him the pleasure of love. Then she mysteriously disappears, plunging him into desolation.

    Black Sun is a singular novel in Abbey s repertoire, a romantic story of a solitary man s passion for the outdoors and for a woman who is his wilderness muse.

    Like most honest novels, Black Sun is partly autobiographical, mostly invention, and entirely true. The voice that speaks in this book is the passionate voice of the forest, Abbey writes, the madness of desire, and the joy of love, and the anguish of final loss. "
