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.

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.

美国波士顿有一纪念碑，上面刻着德国新教牧师马丁·尼莫拉撰写的碑文：“当初他们（德国法西斯）杀共产党，我没有作声，因为我不是共产党；后来他们杀犹太人，我没有作声，因为我不是犹太人；再接下来他们杀天主教徒，我仍然保持沉默，因为我不是天主教徒；最后，当他们开始对付我时，已经没有人为我讲话了……”它震撼着每位读者的心灵，点在人性的软肋——以自私的方式保护自己，忘记人是一种群体性动物，是靠部落或社会得以生存和发展的。人类祖先要是进化到了现代这种自私地步，恐怕早就被野兽吃光了。
