A story that shaked people

Truman Capote The author

- Literary clasics - Truman Capote (September 30, 1924 – August 25, 1984) - Discovered his talent at the age of 11 - Famous “In Cold Blood” (1966)

-“A conversation is a dialogue, not a monologue. That's why there are so few good conversations: due to scarcity, two intelligent talkers seldom meet.” -“No one will ever know what 'In Cold Blood' took out of me. It scraped me right down to the marrow of my bones. It nearly killed me. I think, in a way, it did kill me.” Quotes

“Writing has laws of perspective, of light and shade just as painting does, or music. If you are born knowing them, fine. If not, learn them. Then rearrange the rules to suit yourself.” “Love, having no geography, knows no boundaries.”
