- Book Synopsis
- In 1930's Alabama, Scout Finch watches her father stand up for justice, in a town steeped in prejudice. Atticus Finch tells his children that it is a sin to kill a mockingbird. That lesson becomes the moral centre of Harper Lee's classic novel as Atticus defends a black man charged with attacking a white girl. Through the eyes of Scout and Jem Finch, Lee explores race, class, childhood and conscience in the Deep South of the 1930s. Around them is a town steeped in prejudice and hypocrisy, and at the centre stands Atticus, whose quiet struggle for justice makes him one of literature's enduring figures of moral courage. To Kill A Mockingbird is a modern American classic, a Southern coming-of-age novel and a powerful story about racial injustice, family and integrity. 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 **
