In Cold Blood A True Account of a Multiple Murder and Its Consequences

"[This] is the best documentary account of an American crime ever written, partly IN COLD BLOOD deserves highest marks among American crime histories, it also raises certain questions. What, more or less, is the narrative intended to be: and in what spirit are we supposed to take it? While the book 'reads' like excellent fiction, it purports to be strictly factual and thoroughly documented, but the documentation is, for the most part, suppressed in the text....Whatever its 'genre,' IN COLD BLOOD is admirable: as harrowing as it is, ultimately, though implicitly, reflective in temper...."Capote, Truman is the author of 'In Cold Blood A True Account of a Multiple Murder and Its Consequences' with ISBN 9780679600237 and ISBN 067960023X.
