Why Truman Capote (Almost) Wrote Answered Prayers
In this new volume in Oxford's Inner Lives series, William Todd Schultz sheds fresh light on the life and works of Truman Capote. Drawing on an arsenal of psychological techniques, Schultz illuminates Capote's early years in the South--a time that Capote himself described as a "e;snake's nest of No's"e;--no parents to speak of, no friends but books, no hope, no future. Out of this dark childhood emerged Capote's prominent dual life-scripts: neurotic Capote, anxious, vulnerable, expecting to be hurt; and Capote the disagreeable destroyer, emotionally bulletproof, nasty, and bent on revenge.
