So far this one is abit harder to get into, as Clavin focuses the first act on the history of both the Dalton family and the migration of white settlers into Oklahoma but I'm determined to power through as I enjoyed Bandit Heaven

So far, this book feels almost autobiographical in a way, like McMurtry coming to terms now that by this point he'd written 4 books previously with 3 of the 4 getting film adaptations by this point. Danny is almost a stand in: A young writer who's first novel is successful enough to receive a film adaption much like McMurtry with Horseman, Pass By becoming 'Hud' in 1963.
