Title: Why leave home, Larry?
Product review: I don't understand why McMurtry felt it was necessary to leave his Archer City Bookstore to wander the highways of America. He doesnt' stop to see anything of any interest, doesn't talk to anybody, eats at predictable tollway fast food stops, sleeps at tollway motels and makes most of his observations at a speed in excess of 80 miles an hour. Most of the time he is simply using the places he whizzes past as a launching point for his insufferable ruminations. Couldn't he have done this from the comfort of his own home? If he wasn't a famous author he never would have got this tepid travelogue past the receptionists desk at the publisher's office. To me, McMurtry makes life on the road a grim and mundane prospect.
