Publisher Description

A holiday classic from "one of the greatest writers and most fascinating society figures in American history" (Vanity Fair)!

First published in 1956, this much sought-after autobiographical recollection from Truman Capote (In Cold Blood; Breakfast at Tiffany's) about his rural Alabama boyhood is a perfect gift for Capote's fans young and old.

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 and the memories the two friends share of beloved holiday rituals.

Boohoohoo2 ,

The best!

This is by far the best Christmas book out there. I love the way Capote writes... it takes me back to my Southern childhood. I only wish that the original movie, A Christmas Memory staring Geraldine Page , could be re released this time of year. By far my favorite Christmas book!
