    About this ebook

    Praised by bestselling author Jeff Sharlet as “a beautifully made essay that opens up a writer I thought I knew” and by critically acclaimed novelist William Giraldi as a “compelling and necessary angle on the always dynamic Capote ... a very fine essay by a very fine critic,” this short e-book by Robert Pranzatelli takes readers on a tour of the subtle artfulness of a great American writer’s prose style, examining Truman Capote’s famous and famously varied body of work to reveal the hidden dynamics behind its masterful effects. The insightful result sheds new light on the legacy of a literary chameleon.
