Journal 3 10.14.17 Part II (“Persons Unknown”) of Truman Capote’s In Cold Blood closely examines the backgrounds and lives of Dick Hickock and Perry Smith. Using Part 2 of the novel, describe each man’s upbringing. If Dick and Perry had been raised in an environment such as Kenyon and Nancy Clutter’s, would the outcome of their lives have been any different? If so, how? If not, why not? Explain. Respond in a well-constructed paragraph. (6-8 sentences).

Journal 5 10.21.14 In his nonfiction novel In Cold Blood, Truman Capote challenges the American Dream.

Record the quotes with page numbers.

Journal 6 10.22-23.14 Capote ends his novel In Cold Blood with the quote, Alvin Dewey “walked toward the trees, and under them, leaving behind him the big sky, the whisper of wind voices in the wind-bent wheat” (343). Explain the metaphor of the “wind voices.” How has the Clutter murder changed Alvin Dewey and the town of Holcomb? Is this change good, bad, or a combination of both? Explain. What does this change suggest about the American Dream?
