Very Good in Dustjacket. 0684868822. 414 pages. hardcover. keywords: Literature Anthology America West. DESCRIPTION - Larry McMurtry, the preeminent chronicler of the American West, celebrates the best of contemporary Western short fiction, introducing a stellar collection of twenty stories that represent, in various ways, the coming-of-age of the legendary American frontier. Featuring a veritable Who's Who of the century's most distinctive writers, this collection effectively departs from the standard superstars of the Western genre. McMurtry has chosen a refreshing range of work that, when taken as a whole, depicts the evolution and maturation of Western writing over several decades. The featured tales are not so concerned with the American West of history and geography as they are with the American West of the imagination - one that is alternately comic, gritty, individual, searing, and complex. Contributors include - Wallace Stegner; Dave Hickey; Dao Strom; Dagoberto Gilb; William Hauptman; Jack Kerouac; Ron Hansen; Diana Ossana; Robert Boswell; Tom McGuane; Louise Erdrich; Max Apple; Mark Jude Poirier; Rick Bass; Jon Billman; Richard Ford; Raymond Carver; Annie Proulx; Leslie Marmon Silko; William H.
