<b>From the bestselling author of <i>In Cold Blood </i>and <i>Breakfast at Tiffany's </i>comes the story of three endearing misfits—an orphaned boy and two whimsical old ladies—who take up residence in a tree house. <br><br>“Remarkable. . . . Infused with a tender laughter, charming human warmth, [and] a feeling for the positive quality of life.” —<i>New York Herald Tribune</i><br></b><br>Set on the outskirts of a small Southern town, <i>The Grass Harp</i> tells the tale of three misfits who move into a tree house. As they pass sweet yet hazardous hours in a china tree, <i>The Grass Harp</i> manages to convey all the pleasures and responsibilities of freedom. But most of all it teaches us about the sacredness of love, “that love is a chain of love, as nature is a chain of life.”<br><br>This volume also includes Capote’s <i>A Tree of Night and Other Stories</i>, which the <i>Washington Post </i>called “unobtrusively beautiful...a superlative book.”
