摘要:"Based in part on several interviews with Foote and also on an examination of his private papers, Horton Foote and the Theater of Intimacy argues persuasively that Foote's work is a personal form of southern psychological realism, grounded in the creative tension between his desire to report the stories of his region truthfully and his almost religious belief that love remains a source of meaning, identity, and order in twentieth-century life"--Jacket.
