Terms of Endearment by Larry McMurtry
In this acclaimed novel that inspired the Academy Award-winning motion picture, Larry McMurtry created two unforgettable characters who won the hearts of readers and moviegoers everywhere: Aurora Greenway and her daughter Emma.
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.
