　　The private letters of Truman Capote, lovingly assembled here

for the first time by acclaimed Capote biographer Gerald Clarke,

provide an intimate, unvarnished portrait of one of the twentieth

century’s most colorful and fascinating literary figures.

Capote was an inveterate letter writer. He wrote letters as he

spoke: emphatically, spontaneously, and passionately. Spanning more

than four decades, his letters are the closest thing we have to a

Capote autobiography, showing us the uncannily self-possessed na?f

who jumped headlong into the post—World War II New York literary

scene; the more mature Capote of the 1950s; the Capote of the early

1960s, immersed in the research and writing of In Cold Blood; and

Capote later in life, as things seemed to be unraveling. With

cameos by a veritable who’s who of twentieth century glitterati,

Too Brief a Treat shines a spotlight on the life and times of an

incomparable American writer.

irresistible.” –Newsday
