Description

Bittersweet, funny and touching, Larry McMurtry's The Desert Rose is the story of Harmony, a Las Vegas showgirl.

At night she's a lead dancer in a gambling casino; during the day she raises peacocks.

She's one of a dying breed of dancers, faced with fewer and fewer jobs and an even bleaker future.

Yet she maintains a calm cheerfulness in that arid neon landscape of supermarkets, drive-in wedding chapels, and all-night casinos.

While Harmony's star is fading, her beautiful, cynical daughter Pepper's is on the rise.

But Harmony remains wistful and optimistic through it all.

She is the unexpected blossom in the wasteland, the tough and tender desert rose.
