Description
Harper Lee's Pulitzer Prize-winning masterwork of honor and injustice in the deep South—and the heroism of one man in the face of blind and violent hatred.
One of the most cherished stories of all time, To Kill a Mockingbird has been translated into more than forty languages, sold more than forty million copies worldwide, served as the basis for an enormously popular motion picture, and was voted one of the best novels of the twentieth century by librarians across the country. A gripping, heart-wrenching, and wholly remarkable tale of coming-of-age in a South poisoned by virulent prejudice, it views a world of great beauty and savage inequities through the eyes of a young girl, as her father—a crusading local lawyer—risks everything to defend a black man unjustly accused of a terrible crime.

5By 902025850This book is absolutely amazing. So interesting to read i loved reading it in school!!!To Kill a Mockingbird
5By Matty MirrorsA classic that everyone should read.Awesome literature
5By S.PinkSince I was not raised in the USA, I had not read it. It was not a book required in grade school. Book Bub offered it as a special. I said to myself, why not? Started to read it and was hooked. Can’t wait to see the movie.Loved it
5By JustakidwholovesgamesThis is such an amazing book. I have seen even the laziest students who hate to read pick up this book and get into it. Everyday in class we would just talk and talk about this book so much so that the teacher didn’t even have to start the discussion. It was amazing. Of course, being Black, it was rascist but you have to understand that if it wasn’t then it wouldn’t have the same impact. So for those who say “oh she’s offensive and racist and blah blah blah” you need to understand that this books’s main theme is oppressiveness and racism in the 30s. To Kill A Mockingbird isn’t To Kill A Mockingbird( where a white lawyer defends a Black man accused of raping a white woman in the 30s told through the perspective of a white child) without the racism. It wouldn’t make sense. If you aren’t comfortable reading books where they talk about time periods where there is racism and segregation and other things then this book is not for you. If you like history and books about lawyers ( maybe even John Grisham fans) then this book is definetly for you. You will not be bored.I now know why it is a classic.
