well we lost a giant of Texas /American literature today.............I remember how engrossed I got as I tore off into Lonesome Dove the 1st time.....I may need to revisit this masterpiece again....what book and what a writer! Larry McMurtry, Novelist of the American West, Dies at 84
My favorite is Walter Benjamin at the Dairy Queen in which he roams around thinking of west Texas ranch life, the art of conversation and his life as a reader. I understand Nabokov’s Speak, Memory is also excellent along the same lines
