Harper Lee remains a landmark figure in the American canon – thanks to
Scout, Jem, Atticus, and the other indelible characters in her
Pulitzer-winning debut, To Kill a Mockingbird; as well as for the
darker, late-’50s version of small-town Alabama that emerged in Go Set
a Watchman, her only other novel, published in 2015 after its
rediscovery. Less remembered, until now, however, is Harper Lee the
dogged young writer, who crafted stories in hopes of magazine
publication; Lee the lively New Yorker, Alabamian, and friend to Truman
Capote; and the Lee who peppered the pages of McCall’s and Vogue with
thoughtful essays in the latter part of the twentieth century.
The Land of Sweet Forever combines Lee’s early short fiction and later
nonfiction in a volume offering an unprecedented look at the
development of her inimitable voice. Covering territory from the
Alabama schoolyards of Lee’s youth to the luncheonettes and movie
houses of midcentury Manhattan, The Land of Sweet Forever invites
still-vital conversations about politics, equality, travel, love,
fiction, art, the American South, and what it means to lead an engaged
and creative life.
This collection comes with an introduction by Casey Cep, Harper Lee’s
appointed biographer, which provides illuminating background for our
reading of these stories and connects them both to Lee’s life and to
her two novels.
