Larry McMurtry
A widow with a small army of suitors, Aurora Greenway loves the limelight. She’s got three grandchildren whom she adores (in small doses) and her son-in-law Flap, whom she’s not really crazy about. And there’s her daughter Emma. In some ways, Emma is all there ever was. Now, there’s little time left to say the things that need to be said.

Would you try another book from Larry McMurtry and/or Barbara Rosenblat?
Oh yes, I love Larry McMurtry. He invents the most interesting characters! I've rarely missed a book of his. I have a couple to read maybe but that's about it. His books are among my favorites.Would you recommend Terms of Endearment to your friends? Why or why not?
I'm not sure. As I said in the title I liked the movie better and that's unusual. Now maybe the reason the book didn't measure up for me is because I LOVE that movie. It's one of my favorites that I revisit often.While Aurora is the main character I felt the book didn't explore Emma as much as I would have liked. The movie did.I found Aurora's romantic interests to get a bit tiresome. There was a lot more to the story than that.I liked the book but didn't love it.I found The Last Picture Show much more interesting.What does Barbara Rosenblat bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
She's a wonderful narrator. I've enjoyed many of her performances.Any additional comments?
I will say one thing: the folks who put the movie together chose the absolute best actors for the gang of Terms of Endearment. Shirley Maclaine was Aurora as no other person could have been. And Debra Winger was Emma to a tee.Rare for Me to Like the Movie Better But I Did
