A Christmas Memory; One Christmas; The Thanksgiving Visitor

viii, [4], 107, [9] pp. 8vo. Three works in one volumes: A Christmas Memory; One Christmas; The Thanksgiving Visitor. Includes a new introduction for this edition. "First published in 1956, this much sought-after autobiographical recollection of Truman Capote's rural Alabama boyhood has become a modern-day classic. Seven-year-old Buddy inaugurates the Christmas season by crying out to his cousin, Miss Sook Falk: "It's fruitcake weather!" Thus begins an unforgettable portrait of an odd but enduring friendship between two innocent souls--one young and one old--and the memories they share of beloved holiday rituals."
