Produktinformationen zu „Truman Capote: Enfant Terrible “
This book is a short and pungent New Yorker-style profile of one of the great literary talents and some would say underachievers of American literature. Robert Long combines biographical insights with literary criticism in a chapter-by-chapter development. It covers the early stories and early novels (Other Voices, Other Rooms), later work (Breakfast at Tiffany's), screenplays (the cult film Beat the Devil), the nonfiction (In Cold Blood), the unfinished novel (Answered Prayers). A number of classic Southern gothic elements are deftly explored as they relate to Capote's later work, his successes and failures.
