Book Description
===================
The national bestselling biography and the basis for the film Capote
starring Philip Seymour Hoffman in an Academy Award-winning turn.

One of the strongest fiction writers of his generation, Truman Capote
became a literary star while still in his teens. His most phenomenal
successes include Breakfast at Tiffany’s, In Cold Blood, and Other
Voices, Other Rooms. Even while his literary achievements were setting
the standards that other fiction and nonfiction writers would follow
for generations, Capote descended into a spiral of self-destruction
and despair.

First published in 1988-just four years after Capote’s death, Clarke
paints a vivid behind-the-scenes picture of the author’s life-based on
hundreds of hours of in-depth interviews with the man himself and the
people close to him. From the glittering heights of notoriety and
parties with the rich and famous to his later struggles with
addiction, Capote emerges as a richly multidimensional person-both
brilliant and flawed.
