CAPOTE'S GHOSTS: VIOLENCE, MEDIA AND THE SPECTRE OF SUSPICION

| description | In 1959, on the Kansas high plains, two ex-convict drifters fell upon a defenseless farm family, slaying them 'in cold blood'. As the subject of a book widely regarded as the first of the modern true crime genre—Truman Capote's In Cold Blood—the murdered and murderers live on in the spectral, haunting the minds of the public as the horrors of random crimes and senseless violence. Paying close attention to the cultural production of both the present and absent, this paper considers how violence haunts commonplace geographies and the imaginations of everyday actors, through the lens of banal crime reporting and celebrated true crime novels. Doing so, it offers unique context and insight into the production of suspect identities and the social insecurities that underpin everyday life. |
