| adam_text | Truman Capote is the most perfect writer
of my generation.
In
recent publication of In Cold Blood, abandoned his
humble Brooklyn apartment along with its contents
which included a box of documents that his house sit¬
ter thoughtfully rescued from the curb. In late
trove of Capote papers went up for auction at
Sotheby s. Included in the lot were four school note¬
books containing the handwritten manuscript of
Summer Crossing, a novel Capote began writing in
1943,
to what would be his stunning literary debut, Other
Voices, Other Rooms. (Capote, however, would con¬
tinue to tinker with Summer Crossing on and off for a
decade before finally setting it aside for good.) Since
the time of his death in
biographers had long believed the manuscript lost,
never to be recovered.
To what should be almost no one s surprise, Truman
Capote s account of love and wayward youth more
than lives up to the amazing tale behind this book s
forsaken manuscript. Set in New York just after World
War II, Summer Crossing is the story of a young carefree
socialite, Grady McNeil, whose parents leave her
alone in their Fifth Avenue penthouse for the summer.
Left to her own devices, Grady turns up the heat on the
secret affair she s been having with a Brooklyn-born
Jewish war veteran who works as a parking lot atten¬
dant As the season passes, the romance turns more
serious and morally ambiguous, and Grady must even¬
tually make a series of decisions that will forever affect
her life and the lives of everyone around her.
Summer Crossing is a precocious, confident first novel
(continued on back flap)
(continued from front fiap)
that displays the nearly perfect prose and flawless
narrative sense of one of the twentieth century s greatest
writers. Its immaculate turns of phrase, hard irony, and
insight into the subtleties of class distinction will point to
Capote s future triumphs, especially Breakfast at Tiffany s,
and its dashing and complex heroine will remind readers
of that novella s enchanting Holly Golightly. Worthy of
a spot on any reader s Capote bookshelf, this is, in
every sense, a lost treasure found.
Most anyone who types today owes
something to Capote.
