Instead Capote uses a creative interpretation of events to manipulate the characters and to advance the narrative of In Cold Blood.

    feelings and thought. I like brisk and lively songs that make me feel happy and relax, instead of heavy sad song or strong rhythm hit song because I can easily be emotional. Among all other songs, “Wide Awake” sung by an American singer named Katy Perry is a meaningful song for me.
