A Christmas Memory

Truman Capote

A holiday classic from one of the greatest writers and most fascinating society figures in American history (Vanity Fair)!

First published in 1956, this much sought-after autobiographical recollection from Truman Capote (In Cold Blood; Breakfast at Tiffany’s) about his rural Alabama boyhood is a perfect gift for Capote’s fans young and old.

Seven-year-old Buddy inaugurates the Christmas season by crying out to his cousin, Miss Sook Falk: It’s fruitcake weather! Thus begins an unforgettable portrait of an odd but enduring friendship and the memories the two friends share of beloved holiday rituals.

A Christmas Memory has been described as [a] gem of a holiday story (School Library Journal, starred review), and this warm and delicately illustrated edition is one you’ll want to add to any Christmas or Capote collection.
