A review by zrals
In Cold Blood by Truman Capote

dark emotional reflective sad medium-paced

4.25

The content makes this a tough read - the murders at the center of the book are chilling, and Capote brings pathos for everyone involved. The interwoven storylines of the victims, the town, the investigators, and the criminals, are paced well, and there's always something pulling you towards the next reflection or revelation. Capote controls the flow of information in a masterly way, and threat or pity hang over even the most ordinary scenes.
