Truman Capote, author of such bestselling books as In Cold Blood, The Summer Cruise, Other Voices, Other Rooms and Music for Chameleons, is one of the greatest American prose writers of the 20th century. The reader is offered two of his classic stories: the lyrical “Voices of the Grass,” published in a new translation, as well as Capote’s most famous work, glorified in 1961 by its film adaptation starring Audrey Hepburn, who played the main character of the story, Holly Golightly, one of the brightest and extraordinary women of American literature. Eccentric and full of life, Holly is drawn to the world of rich people, sparkling with the bright lights of diamond necklaces. Guided in her actions only by the voice of her heart, combining childish naivety with the enchanting charm of a real woman, she seems to embody the very essence of New York - a city in which dreams lie at arm's length, fenced off by the shiny glass of captivating shop windows.
