McMurtry, Larry The Evening Star Pocket December 1, 199 0-671-00427-1 / 9780671004279 Paperback Very Good McMurtry's latest novel picks up Aurora Greenway's life 17 years after her exploits in Terms of Endearment . Now in her mid-60s, Aurora still manages to both enchant and infuriate with her queenly world view and unswerving ta stes, including a perpetual quest for new beaux. The capricious, generally directionless characters lead lives fraught with whimsy but also with sorro w, a sense of time escaping before life's real purpose is revealed. The cas t includes General Scott, Aurora's increasingly senile "old boyfriend"; her maid and best friend, Rosie; her three grown grandchildren, all slightly d amaged in some central way; as well as a variety of suitors. The connection s between people in this novel, characterized by humor and serenity, run de ep and sympathetic. Yet, as in life, there is a fair quotient of the unexpe cted and the tragic. McMurtry speaks from the heart with the gentle voice o f acceptance. Don't miss this rare and wonderful book. Highly recommended f or all audiences. Price:
