Tanya OrozcoThe Monkey Wrench Gang
How far will some go to prove a point? Pretty far, according to the book “The Monkey Wrench Gang”, written by Edward Abbey. Abbey was known for being an activist for the environment and criticized public land polices. In this book however, Abbey felt it necessary to write about four ugly men and one gorgeous woman who have chosen to fight the destruction of nature by destroying human architecture- I don’t know if I should judge him for this outrageous book. Silly and annoying the attitude for this novel seems to be extremely masculine and hypocritical. The character build is interesting yet- for the lack of a better word- lame. However, all insults aside, the book is somewhat interesting- if you enjoy drunken’ men talk about how they dislike things in their country and plan up boy scout missions to make a statement loud enough to be heard.(More later in my blog) L
