<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><em>Moving On</em> anticipates McMurtry's <em>Terms of Endearment</em> and explores the emotional journey of a young woman against a sprawling metropolis in 1970s Texas.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Larry McMurtry's <em>Moving On</em>, his epic first novel in the acclaimed Houston series, has long been considered a defining tale of "monumental honesty" worthy of great attention (<em>New York Times</em>). Preceding <em>Terms of Endearment</em> by five years, it is essential reading for anyone who appreciates the inherent genius of McMurtry's late twentieth-century fiction. <em>Moving On</em> centers on the life of Patsy Carpenter, one of his most beloved characters. After calmly finishing a Hershey bar alone in her car, a restless Patsy drives away from her lifeless marriage in search of a greater purpose. In "precise and lyrical prose" (<em>Boston Globe</em>), McMurtry reveals the complex, colorful lives of Pete, the rodeo clown; high-spirited cowboy Sonny Shanks; and impassioned grad student Hank. A critical work of American literature that "presents human drama with sympathy and compassion" (<em>Los Angeles Times</em>), <em>Moving On</em> unfolds a tale of perseverance and emotional survival in the modern-day West.
