It is the fourth in a series of novels about Duane Moore from The Last Picture Show. McMurtry wrote the last two novels in the series "are about the coming of age. "[2]
McMurtry later wrote, "I never thought of Duane as me. Except for a handful of passages — the chapters in Duane's Depressed that describe his depression — the books aren't autobiographical. He doesn't know what I know, despite having been forced by his analyst to read Proust."[3]
