This review is from: HUD (Hardcover)
A McMurtry book that's not on the best seller list, that's barely even listed on Amazon. Maybe it's because the book was immediately overshadowed by the fantastic movie with Paul Newman and Patricia Neal when it was new. But Hud is still Larry McMurtry at his best during those early, struggling years as a regional novelist. HUD is one of the reasons he no longer is.

If you've seen the movie and loved it, great. But you won't find that takes anything at all away from the book. I recommend you get a copy when it's available, find yourself a comfortable easy chair and settle back for a dip into Larry McMurtry's past, Texas past, and the past of an America mostly forgotten.
