Title : Portraits and Travel Impressions - Truman Capote - book

Summary :

In addition to his impressions of a trip made in 1966 between Brindisi and the Yugoslav islands, with a stopover in the city of Dubrovnik and an ironic rambling on women, Truman Capote offers us portraits of celebrities. John Huston, Charlie Chaplin, and Pablo Picasso, among others, are briefly portrayed by his brilliant, sometimes caustic, but always comic pen. For Elizabeth Taylor and Tennessee Williams, however, Truman Capote reserves almost a short narrative, which is the story of his encounters with each of them, spread over several years of his life - nearly twenty years for the American actress who presents herself here in an unexpected light, nearly fifty years for the playwright he has known since the age of sixteen. Verve and humor compete with tenderness and friendship.
