In a play that is realistic, sometimes humorous, and always
profoundly moving, Larry L. King deals with the problems of aging
and our mistaken stereotypes and impersonal treatment of the
elderly. Cowboy Bennett, long a resident of the Golden Shadows
Senior Citizens Home, is a man with not only memories of the past
but also dreams of the future for himself and his
companions--especially the charming widow, Flora Harper. At the
play's end, you'll want to stand and yell, "Ya! Ya!" with Cowboy.
Best known as coauthor of The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas,
Larry L. King as both essayist and play-wright consistently
demonstrates an uncanny ability to use Texas settings and
characters successfully to explore universal themes. Author of five
plays, one novel, and eleven nonfiction books (including Warning:
Writer at Work and Larry L. King: A Writer's Life in Letters, Or,
Reflections in a Bloodshot Eye, both from TCU Press), King has won
numerous awards for his writing, held a Nieman Fellowship at
Harvard, and has taught at the university level. The Golden Shadows
Old West Museum is based on Michael Blackman's short story, which
was named the Best Short Fiction of 1973 by the Texas Institute of
Letters. The text of the short story is included in this edition.
Cover drawing by Pat Oliphant.
