A lawyer for advice to his children as he defends the real mockery of Harper Lee’s novel, a classic black man of raping a white girl charged. Through the eyes of young Scout and Jem Finch, Harper Lee explores with humor and rich with unflinching honesty the irrationality of adult attitudes toward race and class in the Deep South of the 1930s. The conscience of a town in prejudice, violence and hypocrisy is impregnated by the quiet heroism of endurance and struggle of a man to justice, but the weight of history does not tolerate so much piqued.

She, her brother, and Dill Harris, a boy who spends the summer with his aunt in Maycomb, while away the hours reenacting scenes from Dracula get and plotting ways to get a look at the town bogeyman, Boo Radley. At first the circumstances surrounding the alleged rape of Mayella Ewell, the daughter of a drunk and violent white farmer, barely penetrate the consciousness of children. Then, the Atticus to defend Tom Robinson called the defendants, and soon Scout and Jem caught up in events beyond their understanding. In the process, the city shows its ugly side, but Lee offers plenty of counterbalance as well – in the struggle of an elderly woman to his habit of morphine to overcome before she died, in the heroism of Atticus Finch, standing up for what they know is right, and finally in Scout hard-won understanding that most people are essentially kind “when you see them really.” Alternately funny, wise, and heartbreaking, To Kill a Mockingbird is a classic that is to speak to new generations, and deserves to be read many times again. – Alix Wilber To Kill a Mockingbird: 50th Anniversary Edition2oth anniversary gifts
