Banned Books Week Book Club

We’re recognizing Banned Books Week by discussing a banned book, In Cold Blood by Truman Capote!
This event is free and open to all. Feel free to bring your own food/beverage.

Capote wrote In Cold Blood in search of a form that married non-fiction with elements of literary fiction. On November 15, 1959, in the small town of Holcomb, Kansas, four members of the Clutter family were savagely murdered by blasts from a shotgun held a few inches from their faces. There was no apparent motive for the crime, and there were almost no clues.

As Truman Capote reconstructs the murder and the investigation that led to the capture, trial, and execution of the killers, he generates both mesmerizing suspense and astonishing empathy. In Cold Blood is a work that transcends its moment, yielding poignant insights into the nature of American violence.
