#Truman Capote In Cold Blood

- Just some short literary notes….
- …thoughts while enjoying some summer reading.
- After watchting the mini-series “Feud: Truman Capote vs The Swans
- and the Oscar winning movie “Capote” (Philip Seymour Hofmann, best actor)
- I was curious about the book In Cold Blood….again.
- #20BooksOfSummer24
- I read this book in 1967 during a summer filled with babysitting jobs.
- The Daniel’s family had it in their library on Centerview Drive…
- ..my mother didn’t buy the ‘best selling’ books.
- I was developing my love of adult reading.
- (….no more Nancy Drew).
- I am still in awe how well Truman Capopte could write.
- Too bad it was the last book
- …he’d ever finish before his death 1984.
- If you haven’t read this book…

Thanks for reminding me I really need to read it
…it is so good!
This is one of those books where I think I’ve read it, many moons ago, but I’m not sure…
I don’t read much true crime…but this is an exception.
Capote has turned the genre into literature with “In Cold Blood”.
Worth a re-read!
