Description

About the Author Harper Lee is a writer who has achieved international acclaim thanks to her only book, To Kill a Mockingbird . She lives in Alabama and New York.

Features & Highlights

  • Set in the small Southern town of Maycomb, Alabama, during the Depression, this story follows three years in the life of eight-year-old Scout Finch, her brother, Jem, and their father, Atticus. The three years are punctuated by the arrest and eventual trial of a young black man accused of raping a white woman. The result is a tough and tender novel of race, class, justice, and the pain of growing up, all through the eyes of a young girl. Robert Mulligan directed the film adaptation, which won an Oscar for best script (Horton Foote) and best actor (Gregory Peck).

Great Book, Great gift.

I read this in high school and loved it. I pretty much cried when it was over. I wanted to share it with my mother, who prefers to read things in her native Spanish rather than English. A week after I gave it to her, I asked how it was going and she had already finished it. She loved it! I ended up reading a couple of chapters, and have to say that the translations are quite good.

Great Spanish translation of a classic

Great Spanish translation of a classic. The translation is easy to understand but does a great job of maintaining the literary beauty of the English original.
