Question

The first section on Truman Capote's "In Cold Blood" is an in-depth back
story of the characters in the story. This is an example of what?

Answer 1

Answer:

It's a form of biography.

Explanation:

Capote took the readers through the lives of the Clutters—Herb, Bonnie, Nancy and Kenyon. He especially focused on the last day they were seen alive as given by neighbor's accounts.

Since "In Cold Blood" is a true crime, we had elements of nonfiction especially in regards to the lives of the clutters.
