1000 tulosta hakusanalla Larry Singer
Best known for his Pulitzer Prize–winning novel Lonesome Dove and his Academy Award–winning screenplay for Brokeback Mountain, Larry McMurtry is the author of twenty-nine novels, three memoirs, two collections of essays, and more than thirty screenplays. In Understanding Larry McMurtry, Steven Frye considers a broad range of McMurtry’s most important novels and offers detailed textual analyses of works such as Horseman, Pass By, The Last Picture Show, Moving On, and Lonesome Dove to reveal the manner in which McMurtry engages the human condition.Characters are at the heart of McMurtry’s fiction, whether they are nineteenth- or twentieth-century ranchers, modern rodeo men, or women grappling with the angst and confusion of life in the suburbs of Houston. He has created characters rich in texture, such as Augustus McCrae and Woodrow Call, to encourage an understanding of the persistent force of American mythology, but also to transcend type so that they emerge as quintessentially human figures grappling with circumstances beyond their control.McMurtry portrays with depth and insight the conundrums of the modern moment and its relation to heritage, and he deals as well with the intensities of the human mind as it negotiates with a complex and sometimes indifferent world. In Understanding Larry McMurtry, Frye offers a comprehensive treatment of one of the most important living authors, one who has emerged as a central figure in a rich and compelling contemporary canon.

This is a complicated love story -- except that it involves a broken and hurting young man who finally found someone who could help him heal and come into his own, his pastor. He came to an understanding that his pastor was an Angel living among us. This conviction came from two sources. The first was the many, many occasions when the pastor was able to know things about the man that were impossible for any ordinary person to know - things that led this man to a path of healing; and second, after the pastors death, his student continued to guide him for the rest of his life. He felt - and heard - him guiding him down the path that they hd created together.The author painfully described his faith journey, i.e. his focused autobiography from early childhood from the nearly impossible struggle to maintain his very life until the two of these men met and blessed each other's lives
