In Cold Blood
Truman Capote • 1966

Our Take
Capote makes you understand the killers and hate yourself for it. The Clutter family is assembled with such care and destroyed with such efficiency that the disproportion is the point. Literary journalism that never recovered from what it was covering, and left Capote a ruin too.
