On the Other Side of Brokeback Mountain explores the evolution of the feelings of men, in this case a cowboy, as they age. It is a philosophical, fictionalized study touching on all aspects of a man's thoughts and emotions. This work was inspired by the movie transcription of Brokeback Mountain, which has generated a new and intense interest in cowboy life. Here an attempt is made to present a more realistic picture of life on a ranch in the west. The story is timely and should appeal to anyone interested in cowboy life and men's most personal thoughts. It begins and ends with an old cowboy lying in a hospital with no hope of recovery. He reminisces about the most memorable events in this life. This cowboy was a good man but will die along and not at peace. He will be tortured by regrets. Maybe most of us will go similarly, but perhaps with the ameliorating effect of family and/or friends.
