His adaptation of Harper Lee's \u003ci\u003eTo Kill a Mockingbird\u003c\/i\u003e and his original screenplay \u003ci\u003eTender Mercies\u003c\/i\u003e earned him Academy Awards. He received an Indie Award for Best Writer for \u003ci\u003eThe Trip to Bountiful\u003c\/i\u003e and a Pulitzer Prize for \u003ci\u003eThe Young Man from Atlanta.\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cbr\u003e In his plays and films, Foote has returned over and over again to Wharton, Texas, where he was born and where he lives, once again, in the house in which he grew up. Now for the first time, in \u003ci\u003eFarewell, \u003c\/i\u003e Foote turns to prose to tell his own story and the stories of the real people who have inspired his characters. His memoir is both a celebration of the immense importance of community and evidence that even a strong community cannot save a lost soul. \u003ci\u003eFarewell\u003c\/i\u003e is as deeply moving as the best of Foote's writing for film and theater, and a gorgeous testimony to his own faith in the human spirit.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Scribner","offers":[{"title":"Farewell: A Memoir of a Texas Childhood | Horton Foote | Paperback | 9780684865706 | Used: Very Good | Back Stacks D 1725230","offer_id":48167448150168,"sku":"1725230","price":8.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/71-VMuSRzyS.jpg?v=1771946736","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/farewell-a-memoir-of-a-texas-childhood","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
