The idea that Capote created an entirely new genre with this book is entirely fascinating, and it really does read with the intriguing details of non-fiction, combined with the page-turning characteristics of a novel.

The fact that Capote can actually elicit sympathy within the reader for these brutal criminals is nothing short of masterful.

I can (and have!) read this book over and over. Even if you don't necessarily love the story, the techincality of his writing is worth the read.

My son had to read this book for school so I decided to read it as well. A very interesting, thought provoking read. What made them do the things they did?
