I love reading about Capote's Christmas memories. I love Capote's writing. I can connect can feel as if I am there with him.
"A Christmas Memory" is humorous tale of his life growing up in Alabama, and being raised by his mother's family. It is filled with friendship, love, and gratitude. I yearn for those simpler times when technology, and all that comes with it, doesn't rule the world.

Un encantador cuento corto para leer en los días festivos, que nos lleva a ver las tradiciones que un niño mantiene con su "amiga" cada navidad.

After spending the past month reading most of Capote’s work, this guy knows how to pack an emotional punch in the last line. I will revisit this short story during Christmas Season in the years ahead.
This was a very sweet story about the last Christmas a young boy and his older mentally challenged cousin spend together. It was a total departure from Capote's In Cold Blood which just solidifies my love of Capote as a brilliant writer.
This is the story of the Christmas holiday Truman Capote spent with his father when he was a boy.
This version included the short stories: A Christmas memory, the thanksgiving visitor, one Christmas, master misery and Jug of Silver
I liked the first one A Christmas Memory overall the others brought it down to 3 stars.
He writes so vividly and well but not his strongest work
