Edward Abbey.. I had a copy of Desert solitaire at work and a girl looked at me and said “Edward Abbey saved my life, I read his books at a depressingly low time in my life and his books saved me”
Whatever Abbey means to you I bet we all can agree his words bring a romantic warmth to our minds and hearts. The vivid detail of the earthly wonders of the desert and his matter of fact understanding of life makes simple reality clearer and somehow easier to approach.
In a way he brought me to myself, to my fascination of Earth and indescribable desire to be solitary with just the Earth as my consort...No longer a loner I found I had a kindred soul in this brilliant Man bringing me closer to my phantoms while demolishing my demons and delusions of trying to fit into our cookie cutter society. - <3 Earth on friends, Mia
