Question: For people who have read Truman Capote, do you have any recommendations!?
I'm going to read both however do you prefer "Breakfast at Tiffany's" or "In Cold Blood"!.

Thanks!.Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
They are both good, but in very different ways!. In Cold Blood is more important and groundbreaking- really the beginning of a new genre, but don't read it if you are easily disturbed!. I would read Breakfast first, as a warm-up, and tackle In Cold Blood a few pages at a time!. I admit I might be too cautious- strong images tend to stick in my mind long after I encounter them so I approach such material warilyWww@QuestionHome@Com

In Cold Blood was assigned to me as required reading for my AP Writing class!. I think I would have enjoyed more if I were not reading through the meaning to find a good essay topic!. I'd still recommend, though I feel it progressed awfully slow!. Then again, I'm a rather impatient reader!. I need a good thriller to keep me interested!.

I'd recommend it if you like!.!.!.

I liked both books!. Tiffany's is more light weight (and shorter)!. Blood is far more heavy psychologically and bloody, more detailed (and longer)!. Www@QuestionHome@Com
