Pros: descriptive and real
Cons: none
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review: I picked up this book today - and read it today. I was unable to put it down. This is a nonfiction account of 9 months last year and nine road trips the author took.

Endless, monotonous highway; endless, monotonous book

by  jiya ,  Mar 8, 2001
8 out of 8 people found this review helpful.
Pros: I checked it out from the library so at least it was free
Cons: free of plot, free of direction, free of meaningful insight or clever wordplay

A road map to Larry McMurtry's heart

by  RonFranscell ,  Sep 28, 2000
4 out of 4 people found this review helpful.
Pros: A new perspective on a great writer
Cons: Only one piece of the puzzle
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review: It's been said that the Interstate Highway System finally made it possible to travel from one coast of America to the other without seeing anything.

But "Roads," Larry McMurtry's new collection of essays, part Jack Kerouac, part William...
