Larry McMurtry: A Critical Companion
I felt like this was a little thin. Ultimately each book only got 4-5 pages of analysis and some of the analysis wasn't particularly interesting. Not to mention, there were a few factual mistakes that bugged. But I especially disliked how nearly the entire section on Emily Climbs, which to me is one of Montgomery's most intriguing books, was devoted to a farfetched explication of character names. "Ince" is an anagram for "nice"? That's all there is to say?? Kind of a disappointment.
