secondperson finished reading Lonesome Dove by Larry McMurtry (Lonesome Dove, #3)
It starts out like an old-timey "King of the Hill." You've got your Hank (Call) your Dale (Gus) your Bill (Pea Eye) and Boomhauer (Jake). It's a lot of trash talking and joking around and cows. Then it gets pretty racist pretty fast (more than you might expect since it isn't actually of the period). It stays pretty racist for the remaining 75% of the book.
