HARPER LEE - GEBRAUCHT TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD - ...

'Shoot all the Bluejays you want  if you can hit 'em  but remember it's a sin to kill a
Mockingbird.' Lawyer Atticus Finch gives this advice to his children as he defends the real
mockingbird of Harper Lee's classic novel - a black man charged with the rape of a white girl.
Through the young eyes of Scout and Jem Finch  Harper Lee explores with exuberant humour the
irrationality of adult attitudes to race and class in the Deep South of the 1930s. The
conscience of a town steeped in prejudice  violence and hypocrisy is pricked by the stamina of
one man's struggle for justice. But the weight of history will only tolerate so much ... A
benchmark of classic American literature  To Kill A Mockingbird approaches the highly sensitive
topic of racism in 1930s America with humour  warmth and compassion  making it widely
recognised as one of the best books of the twentieth century and in American literature.
