Critics Review
“The finest novel that McMurtry has yet accomplished …
“If I had to recommend one Great American Novel, Larry McMurtry’s Lonesome Dove would be high on my list. It’s got everything I love as a reader: unforgettable characters, a huge sense of adventure, humor, heartbreak, and a story that never lets go of you. McMurtry takes the mythology of the American west and fills it with real people who are complicated, funny, brave, and flawed. It’s one of those rare novels that’s both epic in scope and deeply personal, and that’s a hard combination to pull off.”
