Just about everyone who has read Desert Solitaire finds something (perhaps many somethings) in it they love. Just the same, they unearth plenty in the now half-century-old classic which they contend with or take offense to. Irvine takes Edward Abbey to task on some of the topics that so many of us have thought about or wanted to: Abbey's view on women, migrants (and/or immigration), and on the whole 'solitaire' notion.In Abbey's original Solitaire manuscript and his early journals, he was shown to have wife and child with him during one of his "seasons" in his little over-baked aluminum trailer in Arches; why no mention? Was 'solitaire' and solitude merely a portrayal, an image Abbey wished to uphold? In Cabal, Irvine points of that the idea of rugged individualism has, in some ways, gotten us into the absurd messes we western denizens have created and are now really beginning to wallow in. It takes a community, a cabal, to ultimately find solutions to these man-made messes, or to do anything else for that matter. (Abbey, of course, did appreciate what early Mormon settlers, as a community, accomplished.)Irvine does a fabulous job of presenting these rebuttals in a series of chapter-by-chapter essays, though they are not strictly rebuttals. (For some strange reason it's easy to agree with Abbey while disagreeing with him, as Irvine continually alludes to; we are all multi-sided, paradoxical individuals in a growing group of paradoxical individuals.) In addition, Irvine tells some of her story, but not to the point the book loses its focus. I really enjoyed this book! At fewer than 100 pages, it's a fairly straightforward read---straightforward, as in easy to read in one sitting---and can be re-read and studied in greater depth. There's a lot in it, for such a diminutive work. I wish it was longer!

I'd been anticipating this book for some time. Although the actual reading was basically pleasing, and Irvine can certainly create a really good sentence, this offering falls short of the mark insofar as what was promised in all its marketing hype. Admittedly it's been many years since I read Desert Solitaire, so I need to do that, then perhaps re-read this brief volume immediately afterward for another comparison. But this slim book left me wishing there was more to it.Taking Abbey to task in each chapter was admirable yet also felt somewhat rote, and Irvine's own personal history does not encompass all that the stunning desert wildlands encompass. While I appreciate her own historical link to the land—in terms of her Utah Mormon ancestry—being able to inform her viewpoint in a different manner than Abbey, it lacked a wider view that I think is necessary in this age. More people come to these places now from somewhere else, seeking solace or quiet or respite or simple beauty that does not exist back wherever they call home. Although I do understand those who have claimed Utah as their homeland for a few generations now feeling possessive or closer to it than those who arrived later, I'm also tired of them. They do not hold the only claim to these places. I realize she gets that, she knows that, yet for me it was too much of her own background to read about. While I also realize she can only tell her own story from her own viewpoint, I suppose I'm simply wishing for a more overarching text about Abbey's country...Amy's country...our wild sandstone and canyon red rock country. Maybe it's also that I don't like whiskey, or guns, in the backcountry, that somewhat turned me off. Her revelations about her own history are risky, vulnerable, and for that I laud her. She was using the Abbey model, the model of all personal essays, of bringing oneself into the landscape and the text. It is brave, and for that, I toast her with a raised glass of whatever one's beverage of choice might be.Yet with sublime words like these, I hoped for much more: “No longer can we be voyeurs, catching from scenic pullouts mere glimpses of the wild, uneven territory of our collective unconscious. The hour at hand demands that we molt all that we want and believe we know. Now we must slither — belly to stone — into the dens and burrows of our souls.” Yes, please. Our souls need more, so much more. Can someone please write a dense, rich, long, lusciously wandering yet tightly woven narrative about this topic of a season in the southern Utah wilderness? Gendered or not, rebuttal or not, pointed differences or not, that book still awaits creation out there somewhere. Maybe one day Irvine will be the one to pen it.

Depressing and negative, giving the exact opposite feeling you get after reading Desert Solitaire. Was hoping for an uplifting, updated, modern take on Abbey's classic. Instead we get attack after attack on Abbey's admittedly dated view on environmental issues, with nothing new offered in it's place, making this book a huge missed opportunity.

Pretty good little book. It raises some thoughtful criticism of Edward Abbey’s writings and the worldview that has proceeded from them. Definitively worth reading by Abbey’s fans.

I enjoyed the book, read it the first night I had it;thoughtful, entertaining

If ever a book about American public lands was regarded with reverence, it’s Edward Abbey’s Desert Solitude. Although I knew about it for years (and read his novel The Monkey Wrench Gang), I didn’t take on the sacred text until I first went to the Utah wilderness. A Moab bookseller recommended it along with Terry Tempest Williams’ Refuge, which I admired as much. But Williams didn’t confront the mystique of Abbey, who was dead and buried in the Arizona desert.Amy Irvine is not as polite. At a time when Moab is crawling with every kind of expensively clad wilderness adventurer, Irvine visits the place where Abbey’s ashes were buried and takes him on. She tells him how his worst expectations for the Utah desert and Arches National Park in particular have been far exceeded. And she blames not only the extraction industries but zealous environmentalists.Along with sharing stories about her wilderness experience, Irvine takes on Abbey for pretending to be alone, solitary, when often he was accompanied by one of his five (sequential) wives and his children. She informs him about the #metoo. Movement. And she lays down the reasons why being a woman alone in the wilderness is far more dangerous than for a solitary man. Yet like him, she finds the desert compelling and demanding, inspiring and treacherous. Like Abbey and her late father, she finds elation in risk. She is a worthy adversary.If you love Desert Solitude, you should read these essays. If you haven’t read Abbey’s book, buy them both.
