While recounting the events of the Clutter family mass murder, Capote often switched perspectives throughout the novel. In the beginning, it started off describing the life and backgrounds of the members of the Clutter family. Within this section, the mood is intimate due to the closeness the reader then feels with the family. Capote includes extensive characterization of each member of the family, making it feel as if you a part of it. The mood remains intimate and curiosity spikes when the viewpoint switches to Dick and Perry’s perspective. While I was reading, I was wondering who these people are and what significance they had with the murder. This question then was answered as I kept reading and realized that they were the killers.
