What a loss to literature but McMurtry's legacy lives on.
If anyone is looking for novels of his try out the Thalia trilogy Larry wrote. It bleeds Texan vibes in a very human, realistic fashion. And if you're into film there's a movie based on the last book The Last Picture Show in which McMurtry was also involved with the screen play. They filmed it in Archer City, the town he grew up in and heavily inspired the novel.
R.I.P. Larry!
- GongOfFour 6y agoIf you are ever passing through that area, McMurtry had a book store in Archer City called Booked Up. It's a fun little place.
