In Cold Blood

This mass market paperback shows significant wear, typical of an ex-library book. The cover has creases and edge wear, and library markings are present, including a "withdrawn" stamp. The binding remains intact, but the book shows signs of frequent handling. Despite these issues, the text is complete and legible.

"In Cold Blood" by Truman Capote, published by The New American Library in 1965, is a seminal work in the true crime genre. This edition is a mass market paperback, identified as the fifth printing, and was originally published in hardcover by Random House. Capote's meticulous research and narrative style bring to life the chilling true story of a brutal murder in Kansas and its aftermath. This particular copy is an ex-library edition, withdrawn from the Pueblo Library District, adding a layer of history to its provenance. Capote's work is renowned for its depth and detail, marking a significant contribution to both literature and journalism. The book's condition reflects its age and library use, with noticeable wear but remains a compelling piece for collectors interested in true crime narratives.
