A signed first edition, first impression of Truman Capote's pioneering true crime masterpiece that recounts the brutal 1959 murders of the Clutter family in Kansas. Distinguished by its groundbreaking narrative style, In Cold Blood skillfully blends meticulous journalism with literary fiction, offering a profound psychological exploration of both victims and murderers, and a commentary on mid-century American society. Some rubbing to the boards. Jacket very good, with a small one inch paper loss to front, wear to exterminates and small sticker residue mark to front.
