Requests:  0 Summary:  Overview: Selected by the Modern Library as one of the 100 best nonfiction books of all time. Truman Capote's masterpiece, In Cold Blood, created a sensation when it was first published, serially, in The New Yorker in 1965. The intensively researched, atmospheric narrative of the lives of the Clutter family of Holcomb, Kansas, and of the two men, Richard Eugene Hickock and Perry Edward Smith, who brutally killed them on the night of November 15, 1959, is the seminal work of the "new journalism." Perry Smith is one of the great dark characters of American literature, full of contradictory emotions. "I thought he was a very nice gentleman," he says of Herb Clutter. "Soft-spoken. I thought so right up to the moment I cut his throat." Told in chapters that alternate between the Clutter household and the approach of Smith and Hickock in their black Chevrolet, then between the investigation of the case and the killers' flight, Capote's account is so detailed that the reader comes to feel almost like a participant in the events.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 364.1523 Ca   Checked In Add Copy to MyList McCully-Moiliili Public Library YA -- Nonfiction 364.1523 Ca   Checked In Add Copy to MyList North Kohala Public Library Adult Nonfiction 364.1523 Ca Classic Checked In Add Copy to MyList Nanakuli Public Library Adult Nonfiction 364.1523 Ca   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waipahu Public Library Adult Nonfiction 364.1523 Ca   Checked In Add Copy to MyList
