In cold blood : a true account of a multiple murder and its consequences / Truman Capote
Livre
Edité par Penguin. Londres , 2000
Controversial and compelling, In Cold Blood reconstructs the murder in 1959 of a Kansas farmer, his wife and both their children. Truman Capote's comprehensive study of the killings and subsequent investigation explores the circumstances surrounding this terrible crime and the effect it had on those involved. At the centre of his study are the amoral young killers Perry Smith and Dick Hickock, who, vividly drawn by Capote, are shown to be reprehensible, yet entirely and frighteningly human. The book that made Capote's name, In Cold Blood is a seminal. work of modern prose, a remarkable synthesis of journalistic skill and powerfully evocative narrative.
