Capote...in cold blood

i think I'm the only person on the face of the Earth
that wasn't aware of the plight of Truman Capote, he 
sacrificed six years of his life for the research of
this book, which probably ended up destroying him 
because after its release he really only wrote fluff 
for magazines such as Harpers Bazaar. Anyway back to
In Cold Blood, this little piece of non-fiction follows 
the interweaving life story of the near perfect Cutter
family and their destroyers, two petty criminals by the
names of Perry Smith and Dick Hitchcock, and what a 
story it is.
Everything about the murders is covered by Capote, from
the childhood lives of the killers, the K.B.I agents
assigned to the case, the towns aftermath, the Cutter
family, it is a piece of journalistic brilliance.
Rightfully considered a modern masterpiece i personally 
think everybody should read In Cold Blood if only to
understand what terrible evils man is capable of.
