Larry McMurtry was a great storyteller. I learned from him, which was important. I was entertained by him, which was ALL important. RIP, cowboy. Horseman, pass by.

Hud is based on Larry McMurtry’s first novel HORSEMAN PASS BY (1961). Some years later McMurtry wrote about his youthful first encounter with literature in rural Archer City, Texas: a box of discarded paperbacks. (He eventually turned Archer City into a book mecca.) https://t.co/CKvvFdNmGO
