About this title

Review:

"The Boston Globe" There aren't many writers around who are as much fun to read as McMurtry. He is precise and lyrical, ironic and sad.

"The New York Times"

A novel of monumental honesty....Attention must be paid.

"The Boston Globe"

"Los Angeles Times"

McMurtry can transform ordinary words into highly lyrical, poetic passages...He presents human drama with a sympathy and compassion that make us care about his characters in a way that most novelists can't.

"Saturday Review"

A Texas-sized book...Mr. McMurtry is blessed with an absolutely solid sense of place. His backgrounds and scenic descriptions are inherent parts of his story, contributing as much to the novel as does the completely natural dialogue.
