Sir Gawain and the Green Knight: A New Verse Translation by Marie Borroff
4 stars
This translation was, at times, both easier and more difficult than others I have read.

Desert Solitaire A Season in the Wilderness by Edward Abbey
4 stars
First read in 2010. My wife Amy and I started the audiobook of this American nature classic last June while driving home from Moab, Utah, a place that is very special to us.

Now I must read Amy Irvine's critical response, 'Desert Cabal: A New Season in the Wilderness'.
