Truman Capote: A Literary Life at the Movies by Tison Pugh
ISBN: 9780820346687

Publication Date: 2014-05-15
Understanding Truman Capote by Thomas Fahy
ISBN: 9781611173413

Publication Date: 2014-07-30

In Understanding Truman Capote, Thomas Fahy offers a way to reconsider the author's place in literary criticism, the canon, and the classroom. By reading Capote's work in its historical context, Fahy reveals the politics shaping his writing and refutes any notion of Capote as disconnected from the political. Instead, this study positions him as a writer deeply engaged with the social anxieties of the postwar years.
