11 reviews for Desert Solitaire

  1. Ankit Deore –

    I found it preachy at times. Still, the descriptions of the desert are worth the read. Not entirely enjoyable, but impactful.

  2. Shubham Mishra –

    A classic for a reason! Desert Solitaire is a powerful and moving account of nature. Some philosophical digressions felt a bit heavy-handed, though.

  3. Shreya –

    Desert Solitaire is a literary time capsule of the American West. Some of Abbey’s opinions didn’t age that well, but the essence of nature remains.

  4. Dorin Pegu –

    A truly remarkable book. Edward Abbey’s writing is both poetic and insightful. A must-read for those who appreciate the beauty of nature.

  5. Rushali N M –

    Abbey’s observations are keen, his love for the desert palpable. Some of his views felt outdated. Overall, a good, introspective read.

  6. Shreyas Arora –

    Edward Abbey’s love for the desert is evident in every sentence. It could be repetitive at times but I enjoyed it a lot.

  7. Anonymous –

    A great book that makes you think, but it is also a tough read due to its language.

  8. Robin Thakur –

    While I appreciated the author’s passion, his prose felt a little dense and hard to get through at some points. Still, the message is powerful.

  9. Swapnil Kumar –

    I enjoyed the descriptions of the desert landscape. However, Abbey’s tone was occasionally off-putting and arrogant. An interesting, albeit flawed, book.

  10. Karma Kunzang Tenzing Bhutia –

    Abbey’s writing is evocative, but his misanthropic views sometimes detract from the beauty he describes. Still a worthwhile read for nature enthusiasts.

  11. Rishi Jain –

    Beautifully written and thought-provoking. Abbey’s perspective on wilderness and society is unique and compelling. A bit slow at times.
