"Dear Genius..."
A Memoir of My Life with Truman Capote
by
Jack Dunphy

This book is an intimate portrait of one of America's most colorful personalities, one of the literary geniuses of our time. Truman Capote's public image was charming, engaging, and always controversial. His private life was tormented by demons...writer's block, drink, drugs, self-doubt.

Jack Dunphy was Truman Capote's companion for thirty-five years. This is a book only someone who was as close to Truman as Dunphy could write. Dunphy has adopted an ingenious literary device: Juxtaposed against the compelling story of Truman's and Dunphy's lives together in Europe and New York is the fascinating fictional story of the unforseen influence a priest, Father John Synge, has on that unrepentant sinner Truman Capote. As Dunphy write in the preamble - the priest is Jack Dunphy himself.

The book is a riveting account of tempestuous times, of people famous and infamous, of times good and bad.
