Still Wild by Mcmurtry

Still Wild by Mcmurtry

Larry McMurtry--the preeminent chronicler of the American West--celebrates the best of Western short fiction in this anthology that represents the coming-of-age of the legendary American frontier, featuring authors such as Jack Kerouac, Annie Proulx, and more.

Featuring a veritable Who's Who of the century's most distinctive writers, this collection effectively departs from the standard superstars of the Western genre. McMurtry has chosen a refreshing range of work that, when taken as a whole, depicts the evolution and maturation of Western writing over several decades. The featured tales are not so concerned with the American West of history and geography as they are with the American West of the imagination--one that is alternately comic, gritty, individual, searing, and complex. Including authors such as Jack Kerouac, Wallace Stegner, Raymond Carver, Annie Proulx, and Diana Ossana, this collection captures the real Western canon like no other.
