<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>A young writer hits the dusty Texas highway for the California coast in this "brilliant . . . funny and dangerously tender" (<em>Time</em>) tale of art and sacrifice.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Hailed as one of "the best novels ever set in America's fourth largest city" (Douglas Brinkley, <em>New York Times Book Review</em>), <em>All My Friends Are Going to Be Strangers</em> is a powerful demonstration of Larry McMurtry's "comic genius, his ability to render a sense of landscape, and interior intellection tension" (Jim Harrison, <em>New York Times Book Review</em>). Desperate to break from the "mundane happiness" of Houston, budding writer Danny Deck hops in his car, "El Chevy," bound for the West Coast on a road trip filled with broken hearts and bleak realities of the artistic life. A cast of unforgettable characters joins the naive troubadour's pilgrimage to California and back to Texas, including a cruel, long-legged beauty; an appealing screenwriter; a randy college professor; and a genuine if painfully "normal" friend. Since the novel's publication in 1972, Danny Deck has "been far more successful at getting loved by readers than he ever was at getting loved by the women in his life" (McMurtry), a testament to the author's incomparable talent for capturing the essential tragicomedy of the human experience.
