A very good friend enlightened me about the brilliant novel In Cold Blood by the American writer Truman Capote. This novel is well worth reading because it will transport you the reader to the beautiful prairie landscape of Kansas in the American mid-west. I wont spoil the book for you suffice to say that it ranks with classics such as Moby Dick by Herman Melville and Dubliners by James Joyce. Read it as soon as possible! And if you have read it in the past, re-read the book and enjoy the experience again!
You have to read Beyond Belief by Emlyn Williams. This book is his account of the Moor’s Murderers, Ian Brady and Myra Hindley.
Another exceptional novel is 10 Rillington Place which is based on the true crimes of one of Britain’s most notorious serial killers, John Reginald Christie.
It’s useful to know that all of these books and authors can be sourced via Penguin Classics. Any good library worth it’s salt should stock the Penguin Classic series of books. I hope that you my faithful readers enjoy reading the many fine classical works of literature that are so easily available in today’s modern world. Enjoy the summer and expand your imagination!
