"It seems to me there was a time when McGuane's early novels from the 70's were everywhere. I remember at the college bookstore there were pervasive copies of 'The Bushwacked Piano' and 'Nobody's Angel.' Even in the reference section, no doubt. From sheer dominance and staying power I ended up reading both-then wondering what the fuss was all about. After 18 years of an eastern seaboard education (I started with kindergarten, didn't you?) I crossed the Mississippi and eventually discovered the West McGuane, McMurtry, and Cormac McCarthy write so passionately about. I took the gauntlet of other writers at the time and let Thomas McGuane slip from my memory-until I came across 'Keep the Change' in my favorite used book store. This was a nice reintroduction to a writer who deserves more exposure in the 21st century. As a time capsule reflecting the Regan years, seen though the particularly sardonic quirky attitudes of Montana, Oklahoma and Texans, this novel is perfect in capturing the mores of the time. That last sentence made sense in my mind even though not so much in print-but you know what I mean. McGuane's prose is austere, sometimes harsh, like the landscapes and the economic struggles of ranching in the last quarter of the century. His characters are unlikeable, yet believable and often perplexing in their coldness towards each other. They damage themselves emotionally and retreat into isolated arid personalities. While no where near the wallop of McMurtry's 'The Last Picture Show,' 'Keep the Change' has a similar desolate feel to it. The blurb on the back said something about the novel being "hilarious." My electrolytes must have been off when I read the book because I found no hilarity at all. I did find a novel of substance, beautifully conceived, and eloquently written. But not hilarious."
