Sample Book Insights: #1 Truman Capote was writing a novel about the richest, most elegant women in the world. He understood what these women had achieved and how they had done it. They did not come from grand money, but they had married into it. Their charms were carefully cultivated. #2 Truman chose his swans as if collecting precious paintings that he wanted to hang in his home for the rest of his life.
The most beautiful woman in the world was Babe Paley, called the most beautiful woman in the world. #3 Truman had a close friendship with Marella Agnelli, an Italian princess. He admired her style and elegance, and she appreciated his. He had everything he needed to write about them with depth and nuance, exploring both the good and the bad. #4 Truman's authorized biographer, Gerald Clarke, saw the excerpt of La Côte Basque 1965 and was underwhelmed.
