Title: Has literary pretensions, but isn't a good read
Review: Reading any of McMurtry's sequels is a pointless exercise. They may have literary merit, but for those of us who just want to read the next installment, they are merely one big down. His earlier novels created memorable characters we cared about; his later works dispose of them with reckless abandon. How 90's!
