Download Duane's Depressed: A Novel AudioBook Free
Funny, sad, filled with wonderful character types and the perfect dialogue which he is the grasp, McMurtry brings the Thalia saga to a finish with Duane confronting major depression amid plenty. Bounded by his children, who all seem to be going right through life crises affecting gender, drugs, and violence; his wife, Karla, who is wrestling with her own demons; and friends like Sonny, who seem to be dying, Duane can't seem to seem sensible of his life ever again. He little by little makes his way through a protracted end-of-life crisis, of which he is finally cured by reading Proust's Remembrance of Things Former, a combination of penance and prescription from Dr. Carmichael that somehow works. Duane's Stressed out is the work of a robust, mature artist, with a profound understanding of the real human condition, a deep ability to write about small-town life, as well as perhaps the surest touch of any American novelist for the tangled thoughts that bind and independent men and women. 2000 Audio Honor Finalist.
