This is a short and pungent New Yorker-style profile/extended essay
of one of the great literary talents and some would say
underachievers of American literature.Robert Emmet Long presents a
full account of Truman Capote's early life, making use of Capote's
unpublished papers. The topics covered include his strange
relationship with his beautiful but immature mother (she was
sixteen years old when Capote was born), as well as his friendships
with a series of rich and talented women.Combining biographical
insights with literary criticism, "Truman Capote, Enfant Terrible"
presents a grand overview of a complex and fascinating author: one
who remained a child in appearance and behavior; a Southerner who
strayed from the South, a celebrity while living the most solitary
realm of his vast imagination.
