Aha! Just from the first few pages, it's not 100% as bleak at the end as the movie. Excellent.. After Brokeback, I'm going to hopefully read the rest according to publication date. Looks like my library has copies of all of it. Anyway, this was a delight to read. Completely fascinating the scenes and dialogue that was picked right up off the page and used in the film. And I feel better now about the ending; although it some ways it's worse - knowing all that Ennis continues to muse over. That he continues to feel great pleasure and love from it; but also re-imagines Jack's death as well. So awful. Until society moves beyond each hatred though, it is necessary to see it. Kudos to her for bringing it so vividly real!
