All I can say is, "READ THIS!" It truly is, "A masterpiece...a spellbinding work" (Life Magazine). I have always shied away from this book because it is about gruesome murders in Kansas in 1959, but Capote was an exquisite storyteller. I was hooked immediately. He did such a good job of painting a picture of all the people involved. The narrator on this audiobook was excellent.
