RESUME:"Answered Prayers" is an unfinished novel by Truman Capote. The book explores the glamorous and scandalous world of high society in New York City. Through a series of interconnected stories, Capote delves into themes of ambition, betrayal, and the price of success. The narrative revolves around the character of P.B. Jones, a writer who chronicles the lives and secrets of the social elite. As the stories unfold, the dark underbelly of society is exposed, revealing the moral decay and hypocrisy that lie beneath the glittering facade. Capote's sharp and insightful prose paints a vivid portrait of a society obsessed with power, wealth, and social standing. While the novel remains unfinished, "Answered Prayers" offers a tantalizing glimpse into a world where prayers are answered, but at a cost.
