In Cold Blood - Truman Capote
In Cold Blood - Truman Capote
Note: This book has been widely critiqued for its treatment of the perpetrators and the ethical implications of narrative crime writing. We include it here with that context in mind.
This is a landmark work of narrative non-fiction. Blending meticulous reportage with the pacing and psychological depth of a novel. Based on true events; Truman Capote reconstructs the brutal murder of the Clutter family in rural Kansas, creating a chilling, immersive study violence, and the American psyche.
It genuinely is a compelling and uncomfortable to read. It asks the reader to contemplate their own values and to consider where they sit on the spectrum of journalism, storytelling and entertainment
