Colazione da Truman. Incontri con Capote
«Tutta la letteratura è pettegolezzo». Così Truman Capote, il maestro del new journalism, liquida con una delle sue abituali provocazioni antiletterarie qualsiasi visione sacrale dell¿arte e dell¿artista. È il Capote più irriverente quello che emerge dalle pagine di questo libro-intervista, in cui Lawrence Grobel ha raccolto due anni di incontri e conversazioni con l¿autore di "A sangue freddo". Capote è qui il dandy, l¿esibizionista, il personaggio pubblico prima ancora che il grande scrittore: l¿anticonformista per eccellenza, che può permettersi di parlare con la stessa dissacrante arguzia di Hollywood e della società letteraria newyorkese, di Jackie Kennedy e Marilyn Monroe, di Hemingway e Tennessee Williams, senza mai risparmiare se stesso, i suoi vizi, i suoi successi e fallimenti. A metà strada tra il gossip letterario e la riflessione culturale su un¿epoca mitica, "Colazione da Truman" offre il ritratto del Novecento americano e dei suoi protagonisti, dalla viva voce di un testimone d¿eccezione.

Graced with strong values, courage, and hard-won wisdom, he shares his insights in this powerful book on the divergent roads a life can take, and recounts how he rose to meet the challenges he's faced. Surprising, searing, and deeply personal, Climbing Higher is as honest and inspiring as its author.

The Art of the Interview
THE ULTIMATE INSIDER'S LOOK AT THE FINE ART OF INTERVIEWING"I had a fantasy the other night that this interview is so great that they no longer want me to act—just do interviews. I thought of us going all over the world doing interviews—we've signed for three interviews a day for six weeks.”—Al Pacino, in an interview with Lawrence GrobelHighly respected in journalist circles and hailed as "the Interviewer's Interviewer,” Lawrence Grobel is the author of well-received biographies of Truman Capote, Marlon Brando, James Michener, and the Huston family, with bylines from Rolling Stone and Playboy to the New York Times.

And I want those goddamn tapes!”—Bob Knight"I smoked pot with my father when I was eleven in 1973. . . . He thought he was giving me a mind-extending experience just like he used to give me Hemingway novels and Woody Allen films.”—Anthony KiedisIn The Art of the Interview, Grobel reveals the most memorable stories from his career, along with examples of the most candid moments from his long list of famous interviewees, from Oscar-winning actors and Nobel laureates to Pulitzer Prizewinning writers and sports figures.
