Brokeback Mountain

Before I read the short story I saw the movie first and loved it so it made me want to buy the short story. I love both pieces of media very much and it is a really great and powerful story of these two cowboys. 100% recommend :) <3

Of course, saw the film ages ago. Always wanted to read the story and I’m glad I did. Reading the entire history of Ennis’ and Jack’s story is more heartbreaking. It is a complete and tragic tale told very well.

Okay I was not expecting this book to be so small..and thin but was a good read,I loved the movie sm so the book version is kinda short but happy with my purchase!💕✨

I had never seen the movie, nor read this, but do remember all the media hype when the movie was released almost 10 years ago. I was looking for something different to read and chose this. This book is 55 pages, and just a darling little thing. I read this in no time at all. The writing of Proulx is exquisite. She is a gifted storyteller and I will pursue more of her work. I found this particular story very sad. Jack Twist was the more joyful of the two men. Ennis Del Mar seemed very rough hewn, hugely conflicted and much more tortured than Jack. I also liked reading about the ranching, Western lifestyle, since it is foreign to my experience.There were no winners in this tale, yet, ultimately a very satisfying book. I hate giving spoilers, but if you haven't read this you won't be let down one bit. I watched the movie after finishing the book and the casting was superb. Ledger & Gyllenhaal were superb as Jack & Ennis.

I bought this book for a friend who absolutely loves it. Highly recommend checking out the buy used option as I got this book for just about $4 and it was in perfect condition. Plus it got here 10 days earlier than expected as it was meant to come in the 27th

I lived in Wyoming for two years from 1968 to 1970. It was where I realized I was gay. This book and movie hit home on many levels.

late in coming, very yellowed paperback. It is legible and the pages are all tight in the binding.

Boyfriend loves the book. Far exceeded his expectations. He even shared it in his men book club!!
