«A sangre fría» is Truman Capote's nonfiction novel, published by Editorial Anagrama in paperback (440 pages, in Spanish).
It reconstructs the 1959 murder of the four members of the Clutter family in a small Kansas town and the investigation that led to the arrest and execution of Dick Hickcock and Perry Smith. Capote combines journalistic chronicle and novelistic technique, portrays the victims and the criminals, and describes town life to explore the duplicity of American society, in a work he himself defined as a «non fiction novel».
The book belongs to Anagrama's Compactos collection, where it is number 26. Translation by Jesús Zulaika Goicoechea.
