In Cold Blood: A True Account of a Multiple Murder And Its Consequences - Tapa blanda

On a November night in 1959, a wealthy Kansas family farmer, his wife and two children, were shot and killed. The two men who had murdered them were hanged for the crime. In the six-year interim, Truman Capote researched and wrote "In Cold Blood", an investigative story which raises many questions.

Truman Capote was born in New Orleans in 1925. He is the author of many highly praised books, including A Tree of Night and Other Stories (1949), The Grass Harp (1951), Breakfast at Tiffany's (1958), In Cold Blood (1965), which immediately became the centre of a storm of controversy on its publication, Music for Chameleons (1980) and Answered Prayers (1986), all of which are published by Penguin. Truman Capote died in August 1984.
