Reviews"A significant contribution to the social history of the era, Truman Capote's Southern Years is delightfully entertaining reading. While we will never know all the reasons for Capote's self-destructive nature, Truman Capote's Southern Years gives us some insight into how and why Capote became what he was, both good and bad." -- Southern Living, "The young Truman Capote who emerges from these amusing recollections is quick-witted, scheming, mercurial, and a born leader in mischievous escapades." -- Publisher's Weekly, "The young Truman Capote who emerges from these amusing recollections is quick-witted, scheming, mercurial, and a born leader in mischievous escapades." - Publisher's Weekly, "A significant contribution to the social history of the era, Truman Capote's Southern Years is delightfully entertaining reading.
