The Grass Harp | Truman Capote

pick

Wow, what amazingly beautiful prose! Has that very southern story telling tradition vibe about it. I‘m am going to pick it up in print when I find it to read the other stories in this edition.

Cathythoughts He‘s such a great writer ❤️ 8mo

Tamra @Cathythoughts I listened to In Cold Blood, but this was really different. I wouldn‘t have guessed how richly he could write short stories. 😊 8mo

The Thanksgiving Visitor | Truman Capote

pick

I read Truman‘s Christmas short stories every December so I thought it was time for a reread of this little gem for Thanksgiving. I love Miss Sook and the relationship she had with Truman. 4⭐️

My pumpkin pie cheesecake is all ready for tomorrow! Happy Thanksgiving to all of my American Litsy friends. Hope everyone enjoys their day! ☺️🧡🤗
