Krátky popis
Tender and bittersweet, these stories by Truman Capote form a
captivating tribute to the Christmas seasonSelected from across
Capote's writing life, they 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.
