New book shows ‘Lonesome Dove’ author Larry McMurtry’s ambivalence 📚

Longtime journalist David Streitfeld wrote the biography “Western Star” and says McMurtry identified strongly as a Texan but also couldn’t stand the Lone Star State.

Completed the sequel to Lonesome Dove, which is actually the final book in the 5-book series. A fitting but sad conclusion to a story and era.

I just finished watching it night before last for the first time, in the #WestWed watch party. It was great! Can't believe it took me this long either
