After watching the second season of Feud, I felt I needed to read something by Capote besides "In Cold Blood."  I enjoyed "Breakfast" and the other short stories.  Most of his fiction was a thinly veiled autobiography.  His way of looking at people and his ability to turn them into interesting characters were intriguing.  Now, I need to rewatch the movie to see how it relates to the book.
