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.

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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Larry McMurtry\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Liveright Publishing Corporation\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/29\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.50w x 1.10d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781631493577","brand":"Larry McMurtry","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45653112291556,"sku":"9781631493577","price":10.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/9587\/8628\/files\/9781631493577.jpg?v=1780468315"},{"product_id":"zeke-and-ned-larry-mcmurtry-paperback","title":"Zeke and Ned -- Larry McMurtry, Paperback","description":"\u003cb\u003eFull of adventure, grace, and tragedy, Larry McMurtry and Diana Ossana tell the story of two powerful Cherokee warriors searching for the future of Indian Territory. \u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eZeke and Ned\u003c\/i\u003e is the story of Ezekiel Proctor and Ned Christie, the last Cherokee warriors--two proud, passionate men whose remarkable quest to carve a future out of Indian Territory east of the Arkansas River after the Civil War is not only history, but legend.
