 Black Sun (book by Abbey) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Black Sun is a 1971 novel by Edward Abbey about a rugged forest fire lookout who falls in love with an American girl half his age and then becomes wrongly blamed when she mysteriously disappears in the National Park where he works.
Black Sun was actually the original title given to an earlier book Abbey had written about a group of young bohemians driving across the western United States on Route 66, but the book was never published and remains unpublished to this day.
The reason was because not long after Abbey finished his book, On the Road by Jack Kerouac appeared, and the two books bore so many resemblances that Abbey feared he would be accused of plagiarism if his novel were published.
