Brokeback Mountain short story in Oct 13, 1997 "New Yorker" - Images

The only thing I object to is the people on IMDB who posts messages like, "I can't find the story on the Internet. Please someone tell me where I can download it." A lot of young people think they're entitled to have anything that anybody has said, written, performed, or sang for free. As a writer myself, I have to call a timeout on that idea. Okay, I'll get down from my soapbox now. But Jenny, I have sent the New Yorker story in pdf form to fellow Brokies so I have no problems with your post. And of course it's available at libraries. I certainly would not want to discourage anyone from reading it!!

I haven't seen that issue listed for sale on eBay lately--I also, I admit, haven't searched for it lately--but just after the film opened, copies of it went for HUGE amounts of money--over $100, if I'm remembering correctly.

Just FYI. ...

Wow, thanks, that made my heart jump to see those pages.

That also answers the question as to how she started the story in that version. I understand the "Ennis Del Mar wakes before 5" part was edited by the New Yorker, but was part of the story as she wrote it.
