This is #58 of the Penguin 70 series.


From the cover:

"One of the great masters of lyrical melancholy, Truman Capote remains admired for both his fiction - including Breakfast at Tiffany's-and the pioneering In Cold Blood, a 'non-fiction novel' telling the true story of a brutal murder. Penguin Modern Classics publish the full range of Capote's novels and short stories, and the tales in My Side of the Matter show to the full the blend of cynicism, humour and love that characterized his finest work."

This was the first time I had read any of Capote's work, and now want to read more. The two stories most memorable for me in this were Miriam and Mr Jones; both were slightly unsettling enough for me to read them both again!

This RABCK is accompanying a bookring book back to its owner. Hope you enjoy this :)

This great little Pocket Penguin book landed in my mailbox this afternoon as a nice little accompaniment to a returning bookring. Love Truman Capote's writing, so look forward to reading this, and thanks for the RABCK!

What a lovely way to start the New Year...
