Review
"Los Angeles Times"
Warm and funny...McMurtry can transform ordinary words into highly lyrical, poetic passages...and presents human dramas with a sympathy and compassion that make us care about his characters in ways that most novelists can't.
"The Washington Post Book World"
Beautiful....Unquestionably one of [McMurtry's] best novels.
"The New Yorker"
Sad and sweet yet rigorously unsentimental. Mr. McMurtry has the power to clutch the heart and also somehow to exhilarate.
