Title: Truman Capote's Christmas Memory
Review: The remembered Christmas was both precious and sad, and so unlike our very commercial Christmases that Capote's account is almost difficult to understand. Precious because his family knew how to treasure each other and their individual foibles, although none of them could afford the sort of Christmas gifts we think necessary to give. Sad because the most loving aunties were too old to keep on living and being family for this excellent author. Still, a wonderful little book to give as a gift to oneself or to a treasured friend or relative: it makes Christmas more special than our style of celebration can provide.
