The story of Scout, a six-year-old Southern girl, whose father
feels the emnity of his neighbours when he defends a black man
accused of the rape of a white woman. (Kirkus UK)
'Shoot all the Bluejays you want, if you can hit 'em, but remember
it's a sin to kill a Mockingbird.' Atticus Finch gives this advice
to his children as he defends the real mockingbird of this classic
novel - a black man charged with attacking a white girl. Through
the eyes of Scout and Jem Finch, Lee explores the issues of race
and class in the Deep South of the 1930s with compassion and
humour. She also creates one of the great heroes of literature in
their father, whose lone struggle for justice pricks the conscience
of a town steeped in prejudice and hypocrisy. This edition of one
of the world's best-loved books features the original text. **One
of the BBC's 100 Novels That Shaped Our World**
