Truman Capote, the author of such bestsellers as "Cold-blooded Murder," "Summer Cruise," "Other Voices, Other Rooms" and "Music for Chameleons," is among the largest American prose writers of the twentieth century. Two of his classic novels are offered to the reader's attention: the lyrical "Voices of Grass," published in a new translation, as well as the most famous work of Capote, famous in 1961 for the film adaptation with Audrey Hepburn in the title role, who played the main character of the story Holly Golightly, one of the brightest and most unusual women of American literature. The eccentric, full of Holly's life is drawn to the world of rich people, sparkling with bright lights of diamond necklaces. Guided in her actions only by the voice of the heart, combining childish naivety with the bewitching charm of a real woman, she seems to embody the very essence of New York - a city in which dreams lie at arm's length, fenced off by shiny glasses of window displays captivating the eyes.
