I can't put this down.

What's /lit/'s opinion of the author/Is anythning else by Capote worth reading?

I liked that book a lot. To Kill a Mockingbird is his best work.

It's probably the most interesting thing he did besides that photograph. Breakfast at Tiffanys is pleasant in an uneventful way.

Hahaha oh man it is because To KIll a Mockingbird is written by Harper Lee and not Truman Capote, mocking their literary styles. Very funny anon, A+ gold comedy 5/5 stars

Didn't they finally put an end to the speculation that Capote wrote To Kill a Mockingbird a few years ago?

I read a volume of his short fiction a few years ago. it vacillated between Tiffany's-esque society stories, like >>3379536 mentioned Other Voices was in there, the other stuff was reflecting on his poor rural southern upbringing. a lot of that was wholesome, nostalgic, and sentimental. I actually liked it. the fag could write. but--without having read it--i doubt it was anything like ICB.

>vaccillated
That word isn't appropriate at all. You should have used alternated instead.
Thanks.
