Preceding \u003cem\u003eTerms of Endearment\u003c\/em\u003e by five years, it is essential reading for anyone who appreciates the inherent genius of McMurtry's late twentieth-century fiction. \u003cem\u003eMoving On\u003c\/em\u003e centers on the life of Patsy Carpenter, one of his most beloved characters. After calmly finishing a Hershey bar alone in her car, a restless Patsy drives away from her lifeless marriage in search of a greater purpose. In \"precise and lyrical prose\" (\u003cem\u003eBoston Globe\u003c\/em\u003e), McMurtry reveals the complex, colorful lives of Pete, the rodeo clown; high-spirited cowboy Sonny Shanks; and impassioned grad student Hank.
