Synopsis
A New York Times Bestseller
Alternately hilariously funny and profoundly sad . . .
Maggie's three grown-up daughters have arrived at her Hollywood home to try and make her see sense about her life. As far as Maggie is concerned, her life makes perfect sense. She runs a successful "loop group" dubbing movies, has a lover (admittedly he is married, a psychoanalyst, and very old), and has lots of interesting (all right, bizarre) people in her busy life. Still, their concerns are reinforced when her best friend, Connie, seeks an escape from her own world of complex and difficult relationships with men. Maggie conceives the idea of driving to visit her Aunt Cooney's ranch in Texas, and the two women prepare by buying a .38 special revolver. This road trip will end by changing their lives.
McMurtry is the winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Lonesome Dove. The author of twenty-seven novels, two collections of essays, three memoirs, and more than thirty screenplays, McMurtry is also the editor of an anthology of modern Western fiction. Larry McMurtry lives in Archer City, Texas.

From AudioFile
The latest novel from Pulitzer Prize winner Larry McMurtry is nonstop fun. Reader C.J. Critt clearly loves the story, and her joy reading it shines through in every word. The story follows two lifelong friends, Maggie and Connie, on a road trip from California, where they dub voices for movies, to Texas. Along the way the colorful women encounter a zany cast of characters and confront some of life's most difficult issues. The fun for Critt never ends. While she brings personality to the lead characters, Critt is also marvelous with the many supporting characters, whose personality quirks she highlights with alacrity. Perhaps the most memorable is Aunt Cooney, Connie's octogenarian aunt, a Texas chicken farmer whose indomitable spirit Critt captures superbly.
