The Public, by Cory Perla / Feb. 2, 2015
[SCREENING] Known as one of the godfathers of environmental activism, Edward Abbey helped guide the movement as it began to blossom in the late 1970s by penning novels like The Monkey Wrench Gang. Wrenched, a film from director ML Lincoln, claims to capture “the passing of the monkey wrench from pioneers of eco-activism to the new generation, which will carry Edward Abbey’s legacy into the 21st century.” Wrenched will be screened at Burning Books at 7pm on Wednesday, February 4.
