Danny Deck is a novelist whose wife is pregnant. Feeling trapped in his marriage, Danny leaves, living at first with a cartoonist named Jill, and then with his Uncle L., an eccentric rancher. Over the course of the novel, Danny must wrestle with the values of the Old West, the literary establishment, and how to have a meaningful life.

Publisher's Note
Danny Deck, a promising young writer, is rapidly losing touch with everything that fostered his talent. He drifts from his native Texas to California and back, falling in love, looking for people to hold on to and for a place to settle down.

Industry reviews
"It is difficult to characterize a talent as outsize as McMurtry's. Often his work seems disproportionately violent, but these qualities in 'All My Friends Are Going To Be Strangers' are tempered by his comic genius, his ability to render a sense of landscape and place, and an interior intellectual tension that resembles in intensity that of Saul Bellow's 'Mr. Sammler's Planet.' McMurtry...has a sense of construction and proper velocity that always saves him."
New York Times Book Review - Jim Harrison 

"...[A]cute, elegiac, funny and dangerously tender, and in tone--if not content--more like a memoir than a novel."
Time - Martha Duffy (04/03/1972)

"There are few books one remembers with a real sense of affection, but 'All My Friends' is indisputably one of them. Mr. McMurtry's talent for characterization and the evocation of place--together with his ability to blend them convincingly, so that they seem also to interdepend--makes [Deck's] near-indefinable yearnings for a past which seems close enough to grab at wholly understandable."
Wilson
