Description: Sunset Canyon (titled Black Sun in the US) is a bittersweet love story involving an iconoclastic forest ranger and a freckle-faced “American princess” half his age. Like Lady Chatterley’s lover, he initiates her into the rites of sex and the stark, secret harmonies of his wilderness kingdom. She, in turn, awakens in him the pleasure of love. Then she mysteriously disappears, plunging him into desolation. Sunset Canyon is a singular novel in Abbey’s repertoire, a romantic story of a solitary man’s passion for the outdoors and for a woman who is his wilderness muse. “Like most honest novels, Sunset Canyon is partly autobiographical, mostly invention, and entirely true. The voice that speaks in this book is the passionate voice of the forest, the madness of desire, and the joy of love, and the anguish of final loss,” writes Abbey.
