From the back cover:

In Terms of Endearment, Larry McMurtry created some of his most memorable characters. He now re-introduces us to Aurora Greenway, along with her family, friends and lovers, presenting a funny and bittersweet story about growing up and growing old."

"Since her daughter Emmas death, Aurora has tried her best raising her three grandchildren but Tommy is in prison; Teddy has just been released from a mental hospital; and Melanie is pregnant and doesnt know who fathered her child. And through it all, Auroras indomitable spirit and humor prevail."

"A poignant and refreshing story of human resilience and the ties that bond family and friends, The Evening Star will take its place among Larry McMurtrys unforgettable classics, and is presented here in an unabridged reading to capture every word of this wonderful novel.
