Truman Capote was a genius writer and spoken word performer. He’s best known for “Breakfast at Tiffany’s.” Yes, the movie version that starred the lovely Audrey Hepburn but that horribly mangled Capote’s marvelous novella.
Here Capote reads aloud his heartbreakingly sweet and profound autobiographical “A Christmas Memory”…
Here, along with his “Among the Paths to Eden,” is him reading the real version of “Breakfast at Tiffany’s”…
Have you read any of Truman Capote’s stories?

now that everyone is mentioning in cold blook, will have to read that one too – I believe his cousin, Harper Lee who wrote To Kill a Mockingbird, helped him research 🙂

Other than watching the movie, “Breakfast At Tiffany’s,” I am unfamiliar with Capote. I’ll have to educate myself.
