Pulitzer Prize-winning author Horton Foote has chronicled the experiences of American life in both his internationally acclaimed plays and his Academy Award-winning screenplays To Kill a Mockingbird and Tender Mercies. Now, in this poignant and delightful memoir, he tells the story of how he discovered his own vocation.Horton Foote recalls his youthful aspirations, leaving his Depression-era Texas home to become an actor at age sixteen. He lands in New York City to search for work -- and to study with some of the great Russian and American drama teachers of the 1930s. But after mixed results on the stage, he finally recognizes his true passion: the written word.
Collaborating with such legendary talents as Tennessee Williams, Agnes de Mille, and Lillian Gish, Foote thrived in a world of artistic commitment and creative passion. Yet through it all, Horton maintained his genuine Southern charm, often returning home to Wharton, the town that nurtured and inspired him as a storyteller.
From one of the most moving and distinctive voices of our time, Beginnings is a rare, personal look at a fascinating era in American life and at the making of an American literary icon.

Standard Comforter. Thin Scratchy Sheets
Color: Dark Green, Size: Queen
This is an ok set for the price. I’m mostly using the comforter for a guest room. It’s a light-medium thickness. The color and size are true to description.
The sheets that come with the set are very thin and not as soft as the comforter.

Comforter is nice, sheets are alright. Color is true!
Color: Burnt Orange, Size: Queen
This is a decent comforter set. The actual comforter isn’t too heavy, and would be perfect spring through fall in the Midwest. It’s a true queen size fit and the burnt orange color looks as it does in the photos. I ordered these before it mentioned they’re polyester. They definitely don’t feel as breathable as cotton sheets but as far polyester goes, they feel soft. The sheets wrinkle easily but the comforter feels durable. If you’re looking for an affordable sheet set and you’re cool with polyester, this is a good option.
Also of note is that 2 of the pillow cases have a little extra fabric on the outer rim to look more “decorative.”

Comfortable and Attractive Bedding Set That Offers Great Value
Color: Pink, Size: Queen
This queen bedding set is a nice combination of comfort and style. The pink color looks beautiful, and the textured comforter gives the bed a cozy, modern appearance. The sheets feel soft and comfortable, while the comforter is lightweight yet provides enough warmth for a restful night’s sleep. I appreciate that the set includes everything needed for a complete bedding setup, making it a convenient option. It’s also easy to care for and holds its appearance well after washing. While it may not have the feel of a premium luxury set, for the price it’s not bad at all and offers solid value. Overall, it’s a great choice for anyone looking for an affordable and attractive bedding set.
