Description

Capote sends an update from Costa Brava, Spain: "Just living quietly working on my book"

ALS in pencil, signed “Truman,” one page on a 6 x 4 postcard from Costa Brava, Spain, no date but circa 1960s. Handwritten letter to newspaper columnist Leonard Lyons, in part: "The above address, good until end of Sept., doesn't leave much room for news: not that I have any—just living quietly working on my book. Would enjoy seeing your column!" In fine condition. Capote spent several summers in Palamos, Costa Brava, Spain, where he quietly toiled away on his masterpiece—In Cold Blood.
