A reading by Jay Sheldon.
My favourite Christmas story. Close your eyes and be taken back to a time when life was simpler and little things seemed to mean so much more.
I hope my reading does justice to Truman's amazing words.

"A Christmas Memory" is a short story by Truman Capote. Originally published in Mademoiselle magazine in December 1956, it was reprinted in The Selected Writings of Truman Capote in 1963. It was issued in a stand-alone hardcover edition by Random House in 1966, and it has been published in many editions and anthologies since.

Now a holiday classic, "A Christmas Memory" has been broadcast, recorded, filmed, and staged multiple times, in award-winning productions.
