Leaving Cheyenne
ByPublisher Description
“If Chaucer were a Texan writing today . . . this is how he would have written and this is how he would have felt.”— New York Times
In Leaving Cheyenne (1963), which anticipates Lonesome Dove more than any other early novel, the stark realities of the American West play out in a mesmerizing love triangle. Stubborn rancher Gideon Fry, resilient Molly Taylor, and awkward ranch hand Johnny McCloud struggle with love and jealousy as the years pass.Download the free Fable app

3.5
“I feel like the description of this book is inaccurate. It is in fact a love triangle however it’s not a messy love triangle. It’s somehow cute and romantic and full of friendship.
The whole story is built on friendship and in true Larry Mcmurty fashion, it has well developed and complex characters.
The first half of the book is slow and a little repetitive but once you hit the half way point you get much more invested. Def does not beat LonesomeDove (nothing could ever!) but I enjoyed this enough.”
