We completely depart the Feud series this week, beginning the first of a three-episode arc to unpack the real feud, which is little featured in the series – the feud between Truman Capote and Gore Vidal.

This week, in a prologue of sorts, we connect Gore Vidal and Lee Radziwill, long associated before Truman, who are stepsiblings through marriage, thanks to Hugh D. Auchincloss. Hugh’s second and third wives, respectively, were Nina Gore Vidal and Janet Lee Bouvier, mothers of Gore and Lee. This one is multi-layered and involves so many spiderwebs.
