Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Tender and bittersweet, these stories by Truman Capote form a captivating tribute to the Christmas seasonSelected from across Capote's writing life, the stories range from nostalgic portraits of childhood to more unsettling works that reveal the darkness beneath the festive glitter. In the Deep South of Capote's youth, a young boy, Buddy, and his beloved maiden 'aunt' Sook forage for pecans and whisky to bake into fruitcakes, make kites - too broke to buy gifts - and rise before dawn to prepare feasts for a ragged assembly of guests; it is Sook who teaches Buddy the true meaning of goodwill. In other stories, an unlikely festive miracle, of sorts, occurs at a local drugstore; an eccentric young girl dreams of Hollywood; and a lonely woman has a troubling encounter in wintry New York. Brimming with feeling, these sparkling tales convey both the wonder and the chill of Christmas time. Originally published in 1956, this short storyNbased on Capote's childhoodNtells of a young boy who lovingly makes fruitcakes from scratch at Christmastime with his elderly cousin. Now this American holiday classic is repackaged and includes an audio CD narrated by Broadway star and Oscar]-winning actress Holm. Full color.
