Description: This book will be shipped securely protected in a sturdy box SAD SAGA OF WRITER TRUMAN CAPOTE AND HIS ANGRY HIGH SOCIETY SWANS THIS BESTSELLER IS THE BASIS FOR THE TV MINISERIES Feud about writer Truman Capote's fall from grace among his high society women friends he called his "Swans" after he published an extract from a novel he was struggling to finish. In the extract he revealed barely-disguised gossip - and it backfired on him. To his horror, the supremely-talented but eccentric writer was ostracized in the elite circles he cherished. Author Laurence Leamer guides readers through this fascinating world of privilege, wealth, good-looks and glamour - a world most of us will never experience - and explains what happened to Capote when he stepped out of line. THIS COPY IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION with clean, crisp and unmarked pages, an intact dust-jacked and a firm and square hardcover. It looks as though it has yet to be read. It is illustrated with black-and-white photographs and, in addition to a general index, there are source notes and a bibliography. There are no signs of previous ownership.
