Texasville by Larry McMurtry. People know about (and hopefully love) Lonesome Dove and Last Picture Show. Texasville should be recognized alongside those as one of his best works. It's one of the funniest novels I've read.

He is the master of creating characters that are both satirical but you love so much.
