Desert Solitaire
First published in 1968, Desert Solitaire is one of Edward Abbey's most critically acclaimed works and marks his first foray into the world of nonfiction writing. Written while Abbey was working as a ranger at Arches National Park outside of Moab, Utah, Desert Solitaire is a rare view of one man's quest to experience nature in its purest form.Through prose that is by turns passionate and poetic, Abbey reflects on the condition of our remaining wilderness and the future of a civilization that cannot reconcile itself to living in the natural world as well as his own internal struggle with morality. As the world continues its rapid development, Abbey's cry to maintain the natural beauty of the West remains just as relevant today as when this book was written.House of Ash
After hearing voices among an eerie copse of trees in the woods, seventeen-year-old Curtis must confront his worst fear: that he has inherited his father's mental illness. A desperate search for answers leads him to discover Gravenhearst, a labyrinth mansion that burned down in 1894. When he locks eyes with a steely Victorian girl in a forgotten mirror, he's sure she's one of the fire's victims. If he can unravel the mystery, he can save his sanity … and possibly the girl who haunts his dreams. But more than 100 years in the past, the girl in the mirror is fighting her own battles. When her mother disappears and her sinister stepfather reveals his true intentions, Mila and her sister fight to escape Gravenhearst and unravel the house's secrets—before it devours them both.A Trace of Hope (a Keri Locke Mystery--Book #5)

猿朋豹友(人猿泰山系列)
人猿泰山系列是一部让中小学生开阔眼界、丰富想象力的书,是一部教给孩子动物是朋友、大自然是家园的温情冒险小说,是一部中小学图书馆和孩子的书架上不得不放的书,是父母与孩子共同阅读的睡前故事。小说情节奇谲精彩,主人公强悍而无畏,为孩子们打开了一扇充满着浪漫英雄主义的丛林世界大门。译者的话:上世纪四十年代,我们在读初中时,《人猿泰山》作为世界名著,曾经风靡一时。每逢课间十分钟,同学们几乎满教室争说泰山。当时,这部奇趣曼妙的小说,已经在我们心里扎根了。1988年,我俩六十岁退休后,曾到各地旅游,顺便到各省大图书馆、大学图书馆查询此书,不但译本遍寻不得,连原文本也没有了。
