ENTS,

As we are on this theme, I want to ask if anyone can recall the name of a short 
story.  I remember reading it when an undergraduate.  It is a short story 
written by Truman Capote.  It is gothic in style, but not dark in mod.  It is 
set in a snowbound house in the woods. I have not been able to recall the name 
of the story.  I would like to find a copy and reread it again.  In general I 
am not a Truman Capote fan, but this story was memorable, even if the title has 
not been.

  Jenny, et all, I'm enjoying the poetry, so I thought that I'd post one
  too!  Larry

  Orchard Trees, January by Richard Wilbur
  It's not the case, though some might wish it so
  Who from a window watch the blizzard blow

  White riot through their branches vague and stark,
  That they keep snug beneath their pelted bark.

  They take affliction in until it jells
  To crystal ice between their frozen cells,

  And each of them is inwardly a vault
  Of jewels rigorous and free of fault,

  Unglimpsed until in May it gently bears
  A sudden crop of green-pronged solitaires.
