In Cold Blood: Could it all appear in chronological fashion?

Check out the following link:

http://www.crimelibrary.com/classics/clutter/

The creative minds behind this weblink have taken Capote's novel and re-alligned it so that there could be a chronological inter-play between events/persons invovled in the Clutter Family murders.

Your assignment is to read up on the way they have done this, and think/comment in regards to the following points of referrence:

1.How important is the role of Alvin 'Al' Dewey in Capote's novel vis-a-vis the crimelibrary's chronological recounting of it?

2. Where does, in terms of representation of events (now that you have access to the chronology of events), Capote take the greatest liberties as a novelist?
