A legendary hero of the west and an icon to irreverent and fun-loving souls everywhere, Abbey's literary reputation continues to soar. Principally known as a prose writer, Abbey was also a passionate producer of verse. These never-before-published poems are culled from Abbey's Journals and offer an insightful, unique look into the mind of a legend.

Earth Apples: The Poetry of Edward Abbey | Edward Abbey, David Petersen

Pickpick

Edward Abbey is best known for fiction and non-fiction, but he dabbled in poetry, writing some in his journals, occasionally submitting some poems for publication (none were accepted). This collection gathers those poems, some quite lovely and sophisticated, a few bawdy and adolescent. Still, the spirit of the man and his philosophy is quite alive in these words and fans of his other work should seek it out.
