Died: March 25, 2021. LARRY McMURTRY, who has died aged 84, was an acclaimed novelist and screenwriter with a mission to correct some of the old Hollywood stereotypes of the American West. In widely acclaimed novels such as Lonesome Dove, and such screenplays as Brokeback Mountain, he wrote about the unsentimental, often dark reality of the cowboy, based in part on his own upbringing in Texas. His job, he said, was to be a critic of the myth of the cowboy. In a way, even though he loved Texas and always lived there, his career was a kind of reaction against his childhood. His father was a rancher and there were no books in the family home, but the young Larry became obsessed with reading and literature after a relative left behind a box of books.
