"Unveiling the Scandalous World of Truman Capote's Inner Circle"
Originally Published 1 year ago — by The New York Times
The new television series "Feud: Capote vs. the Swans" revisits Truman Capote's fall from grace within high society after he betrayed his wealthy friends by publishing "La Côte Basque, 1965" in Esquire magazine. The story, which was meant to be part of his unfinished novel "Answered Prayers," caused a rift with the social elite and marked the end of his privileged status, leading to his eventual exile from the Upper East Side's social scene.
