Post 5

Truman Capote takes the story of two murderers and humanizes the both of them. Instead of just telling the story and making them look like bad and cruel people, he shows a different side of them. He shows them as normal human beings and is trying to do the best for them. Capote is going out of his way to help them and to get them a fair trial. I like how Truman does this because he is showing both sides of the story. He is not just going from one point of veiw, he is getting different perspectives of the story and he is talking to Dick and Perry to get their life stories and to explain who they really are so people know who they are as people and not as murderers.
