Week 3 Post 2

I believe I would have to compare Morrison and Capote in relation to their treatment with their characters. Along the lines of sympathy, I think Capote goes with a more desprate attempt to make the reader feel sorry about them. Morrison does this to an extent but even though Perry and Dick were cold blooded murders, I felt more sympathy for them than Morrison's characters.
However, Morrison in my opinion is more intamite in relation to her characters. She expresses their feelings more openly than Capote. It seems that Capote is more desciptive with his character's feelings, the same way he describes their past. I think the reason for this of course is that women are more expressive about intimacy, feelings and things of that nature.
