The Tender Mercies Of Horton Foote
Charles McNulty: "No matter how conniving, gossiping or suspicious those denizens of Harrison, Texas - the name he bestowed on his hometown of Wharton to protect the privacy of friends, family and neighbors - may have been, they were never insentient to the poetry of loneliness and loss, which were Foote's twin themes and the ground that made him an American Chekhov."
