During the late 1950’s, in a small rural town in
Holcomb, Kansas, the entire town found themselves astonished and shocked by the
savage murder of an entire family. In
Cold Blood, by Truman Capote, is a book about murder. Capote presents his
novel in a journalistic chronology, introducing the crime from different points
of view. After a “planned” robbery results in a brutal murder of a countryside
family, two criminals, Perry and Dick, are on the run from the police.
In Cold Blood
is recommended for teenagers who enjoy reading
cinematic type of books in which the book reflects itself more like a movie
than an actual novel. Capote’s novel is full of vivid descriptions and
attention grabbers that make it hard for you to put the book down once you have
begun reading it. In Cold Blood
deserves a huge thumb’s up because this book was very captivating and it had me
hooked right until the end!
