Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A young writer hits the dusty Texas highway for the California coast in this “brilliant . . . funny and dangerously tender” (Time) tale of art and sacrifice. Hailed as one of “the best novels ever set in America’s fourth largest city” (Douglas Brinkley, New York Times Book Review), All My Friends Are Going to Be Strangers is a powerful demonstration of Larry McMurtry’s “comic genius, his ability to render a sense of landscape, and interior intellection tension” (Jim Harrison, New York Times Book Review). 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. A cast of unforgettable characters joins the naïve troubadour’s pilgrimage to California and back to Texas, including a cruel, long-legged beauty; an appealing screenwriter; a randy college professor; and a genuine if painfully “normal” friend. 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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Myself and My Friend, Vol. 1 of 4: A Novel But though my. Principal incitements to take up the (pen were those above stated, yet I must do myself the Just1ce to say, that they were not the sole ones. I was besides actuated by strong feelings of philanthropy, and an earnest desire of contributing towards the entertainment of the public. I had once proposed giving my work the title of confessions, sincel thought that the confessions OF samuel danville would look extremely well in a title page, and that is a very im portant consideration in composing a book. Besides, as I have confessed that a desire of notoriety is one of my lead ing motives in commencing Author, this title seemed particularly appropriate. On reflecting, however, more deeply, it seemed to me that the days of confes sions were gone by that the present are rather the days of lives andhi stories and I am well aware that an Author who writes from the pure love of fame, must study the prevailing fashions of the day, and even sacrifice to them, if necessary, the look of his title page. I have therefore preferred giving my work the title of a history. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WINNER OF THE NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FOR FICTION ONE OF THE NEW YORK TIMES’S 100 BEST BOOKS OF THE 21ST CENTURY A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER "A beautiful book . . . a world of insight into death, grief, art, and love." —Wall Street Journal "A penetrating, moving meditation on loss, comfort, memory . . . Nunez has a wry, withering wit." —NPR "Dry, allusive and charming . . . the comedy here writes itself.” —The New York Times A moving story of love, friendship, grief, healing, and the magical bond between a woman and her dog. When a woman unexpectedly loses her lifelong best friend and mentor, she finds herself burdened with the unwanted dog he has left behind. Her own battle against grief is intensified by the mute suffering of the dog, a huge Great Dane traumatized by the inexplicable disappearance of its master, and by the threat of eviction: dogs are prohibited in her apartment building. While others worry that grief has made her a victim of magical thinking, the woman refuses to be separated from the dog except for brief periods of time. Isolated from the rest of the world, increasingly obsessed with the dog's care, determined to read its mind and fathom its heart, she comes dangerously close to unraveling. But while troubles abound, rich and surprising rewards lie in store for both of them. Elegiac and searching, The Friend is both a meditation on loss and a celebration of human-canine devotion.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Myself and My Friend, Vol. 2 of 4: A Novel Mr. Armstrong expressed himself as much obliged to me for the communication, since he should certainly never have had any suspicion of his son's entertaining such an idea - but he could, he added, make him perfectly easy on that account.

You, Samuel, judged very rightly, that what ever might be my son's wishes, even though in direct Opposition to my own, the knowledge of them could not distress me half so much as the idea of his practising any reserve towards me -and you, Walter, may be assured that the disclosure you have made gives me much less pain than if you had suffered me, through ignorance of your wishes, involuntarily to op pose them. 1 had not been perfectly well all day, and was apprehensive that an attack was coming on; I really was much indisposed when the conversation was begun, and was mortified that my increasmg suiierings pre vented its being continued.
