Product Description

 
This is the film tie-in edition of the story by Annie Proulx, now a movie starring Heath Ledger, Jake Gyllenhaal, Randy Quaid, Anne Hathaway, and Michelle Williams.

Brokeback Mountain is set in the beautiful, wild landscape of Wyoming where cowboys live as they have done for generations. Hard, lonely lives in unforgiving country. Jack Twist and Ennis del Mar are two ranch hands, "drop-out country boys with no prospects, brought up to hard work and privation, both rough-mannered, tough spoken", glad to have found each other's company where none had been expected. But companionship becomes something else on Brokeback Mountain, something not looked for, something deadly.

Not the volume to buy, but the heart of the heart of the matter

Date of Review:  Jan 21, 2006
The Bottom Line: I recommend the story, but in other packaging.
Review: Annie Proulx's 1997 New Yorker story occupied only parts of 13 pages in the magazine, but was stretched to 55 pages as a stand-alone book.

This is one of the most powerful American short stories ever, in a league with "Big Two-Hearted...

The Bottom Line: If you only want a "cliff notes" type of book this is the one for you. For those that want more information, find a different book.
Review: I m often accused of living in the dark ages. It s not so much as living in the dark ages, it s that my life is so busy that I don t get to watch movies often. Between school, my daughter, work, and coaching swimming the little bit of free time I...

The Bottom Line: What is the Moral Value of denying people equal protection of their rights under law?
Review: If they could face it
I could take it in their eyes
Oh I know I'd make it
Their tiny minds
And sacred cows just fake it
If only then and only then
They would understand

Paperback, Brokeback Mountain: Secreto En La Montana/ Secret in the Mountai...
From the Publisher: Annie Proulx s breathtaking story Brokeback Mountain has now been adapted to film by Larry McMurtry and Diana Ossana. This handsome edition of the story, originally published in the collection Close Range, will coincide with the release of the film in 2005. The release of the film of The Shipping News brought hundreds of thousands of new readers to that novel. Brokeback Mountain is the story of Ennis del Mar and Jack Twist, two cowboys who share a small cabin while working as herders and camp tenders during a summer spent on a range far above the tree line. They fall into a relationship that at first seems solely sexual-but then reveals itself to be something more. Both men marry and have families, but over the course of many years and frequent separations they find their relation- ship becomes the most important thing in both their lives, and they do anything they can to maintain it. Proulx s description of their bond is beautiful and haunting-and often brutal in its portrayal of the hard
