Los perros ladran is a collection of autobiographical notes by Truman Capote that span the written geography of his life from 1942 to 1972. Considered the closest thing to an autobiography by the author, this book offers a prose map of his life, from his impressions of New Orleans and New York to his travels through Italy, Spain, Tangier, and Haiti. Distinguished figures such as André Gide, Cecil Beaton, Colette, and Greta Garbo parade through its pages, along with other anonymous but equally memorable characters. The volume also includes 'Se oyen las musas', a sample of Capote's 'non-fiction narrative', where he recounts the Everyman Opera's tour of Russia in 1956, offering a viperous and relentless look at Soviet Russia.
Truman Garcia Capote was an American novelist, screenwriter, playwright, and actor. Several of his short stories, novels, and plays have been praised as literary classics, and he is regarded as one of the founders of New Journalism, along with Gay Talese, Hunter S. Thompson, Norman Mailer, Joan Didion, and Tom Wolfe. His work and his life story have been adapted into and have been the subject of more than 20 films and television productions.
