This based on a true story.
I laughed, I loved it!

McMurtry's novel -- later loosely used as the basis for a wildly popular movie -- centers around Aurora Greenway -- a manipulative, self-centered, and -- at the core -- more than a little bit silly woman. I didn't care for her in the movie, and she's even less likeable in print.
