Welcome to the LitCharts study guide on Truman Capote's In Cold Blood. Created by the original team behind SparkNotes, LitCharts are the world's best literature guides.
Party Animal: In November 1966, Capote threw The Black and White Ball, which became one of the most infamous parties of the sixties.
Picture This: Much of the uproar over Capote’s 1948 debut Other Voices, Other Rooms had less to do with the contents of the book and more to do with his author photograph. Taken by Harold Halma, the photograph depicts a young Capote on a chaise lounge, shooting the camera an outrageous come-hither stare.
