Yesterday Richard came back with a bag full of Truman Capote books , I read breakfast at Tiffany s and the other short stories that came with this book a long time ago ,and now it s time I get to know more about this great writer ...
but on a superficial level the cover is absolutely gorgeous, I can imagine Beaudelaire in a flat like this....
this Ana Sui poster looks like it belongs with Truman all of them sitting together him entertaining these young girls with outrageous stories about the socialites he wrote about with his poison pen ...
and what else did they deserve anyway?
I guess it was like feeding the pet dog caviar for years and having him on a velvet cushion to entertain you
and how domesticated it looked
and then one day unexpected he jumps and rips your throat open ....but then it was just a stray dog
no wonder he was full of rage at you and your privileges and empty lives, a beautiful shell ....with nothing inside it ...and he sat there all this time and he saw everything you did ....
