At first, sharing an isolated tent, the attraction is casual, inevitable, but something deeper catches them that summer. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBoth men work hard, marry, and have kids because that's what cowboys do. But over the course of many years and frequent separations this relationship becomes the most important thing in their lives, and they do anything they can to preserve it. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe New Yorker\u003c\/i\u003e won the National Magazine Award for Fiction for its publication of \"Brokeback Mountain,\" and the story was included in Prize Stories 1998: The O.
