To Kill a Mockingbird is a novel by Harper Lee published in 1960. Instantly successful, widely read in high schools and middle schools in the United States, it has become a classic of modern American literature, winning the Pulitzer Prize. The plot and characters are loosely based on Lee's observations of her family, her neighbors and an event that occurred near her hometown of Monroeville, Alabama, in 1936, when she was ten.
Read this as part of the BBC Big Read. In Ireland this book is on the school curriculum but my teacher chose to do a different one so I’m only reading this classic now.
It was a good read with lots of interesting topics regarding equality and justice. Definitely one of those books that everyone should read.
