CHAPTER VII: A PERSON ON YOUR FIELD THAT YOU ADMIRE {"My name is TRUMAN CAPOTE"} |
Truman Capote was a connoted novelist borned in New Orleans, on 1924. He had a tough chilhood, because of his parents. They split, and his mother married with a very rich business man, whose surname was Capote. He felt really lonely not only because of his parents theme; he always was different. It must was very hard the fact of being gay in the fifty's society, but Truman Capote could made himself a name because of all of his pieces of writing. He started working for New Yorker, but then he left and started to travel around the world, specifically Italy, Greece and Spain. In the middle of that he wrote a lot of interviews for Playboy and one of his most-known novels: Breakfast at Tiffany's (1958).
But there's one novel that make the difference between him and his other fellows. This may be In Cold Blood (1966), a non-fiction novel. Capote revolutionized the journalism's world, because he found a new way to see it: To tell a story, and between it show the world the problems inside the context that the story develops, in a poetic and literally way.
