The
unforgettable novel of a childhood in a sleepy Southern town and the
crisis of conscience that rocked it. To Kill A Mockingbird became both
an instant bestseller and a critical success when it was first published
in 1960. It went on to win the Pulitzer Prize in 1961 and was later
made into an Academy Award-winning film, also a classic.
Compassionate,
dramatic, and deeply moving, To Kill A Mockingbird takes readers to the
roots of human behavior—to innocence and experience, kindness and
cruelty, love and hatred, humor and pathos. Now with over 18 million
copies in print and translated into forty languages, this regional
story, by a young Alabama woman, claims universal appeal. Harper Lee
always considered her book to be a simple love story. Today it is
regarded as a masterpiece of American literature.
