NIL is a neat read. It’s a study in human nature; one that offers a refreshing take on old ideas. NIL raises questions and brings up ideas that need to be spoken about but often never are. It’s easy for the reader to fall in love with the gentle nature that NIL uses in guiding the reader to discovery. There is nothing better than a book like NIL – one with a mission but it is not forced upon you. As the reader you are presented with the facts and allowed to determine what you think. NIL’s knowledge of community, culture, society, history, government and religion is masterful, and the way in which NIL weaves this material into the storylines is genius. The mix of insight NIL provides is complex, important and necessary to creating change. The story that NIL offers includes the human condition: its conflicts, its tragedies and joys, and most importantly the endurance that it requires.

Selected by the Modern Library as one of the 100 best nonfiction books of all time From the Modern Library’s new set of beautifully repackaged hardcover classics by Truman Capote—also available are Breakfast at Tiffany’s and Other Voices, Other Rooms (in one volume), Portraits and Observations, and The Complete Stories Truman Capote’s masterpiece, In Cold Blood, created a sensation when it was first published, serially, in The New Yorker in 1965. The intensively researched, atmospheric narrative of the lives of the Clutter family of Holcomb, Kansas, and of the two men, Richard Eugene Hickock and Perry Edward Smith, who brutally killed them on the night of November 15, 1959, is the seminal work of the “new journalism.” Perry Smith is one of the great dark characters of American literature, full of contradictory emotions. “I thought he was a very nice gentleman,” he says of Herb Clutter. “Soft-spoken. I thought so right up to the moment I cut his throat.” Told in chapters that alternate between the Clutter household and the approach of Smith and Hickock in their black Chevrolet, then between the investigation of the case and the killers’ flight, Capote’s account is so detailed that the reader comes to feel almost like a participant in the events.

An inspired fusion of fact and invention, this beautifully realized, hard-bitten, lyrical book is not only Elizabeth Hardwick’s finest fiction but one of the outstanding contributions to American literature of the last fifty years.
