Capote’s undeniable affection for the prisoners begins to show in the final pages. He was so careful to keep himself out of the narrative up to this point, he allows himself to appear twice in a conversation with Dick, in one of the last scenes of the book. At this point in the book he was much more connected with Perry and Dick than ever, and at last he seems to acknowledge his own writing as shaping some of the events in the story. He allows himself to appear in the story because of many years, he was sitting on the sideline never giving himself time to be heard in the novel. He obviously wrote it, but he never got to write exactly his conversations and interactions with Dick and Perry, telling it like it really happened, a narrative between he and the murderers. I feel that he finally injects himself into the story because he needs the readers to finally read about a conversation that he had with the two men, exactly the way that it happened.
