Edward Abbey

With a focus on selected writings by Edward Abbey, the article discusses the places which the travel writer designates as home. Showing how Abbey mythologizes his birthplace and how he sentimentalizes his boyhood nest, it also analyzes the fragments in which the author employs the word home with reference to various locations the self-described desert rat defines his home, which are not necessarily the spots in his cherished American West.
