'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.

MEDIA REVIEWS
Lee explores with exuberant humourthe irrationality of adult attitudes to race and class in the Deep South of the 1930s. Someone rare has written this very fine novel, a writer with the liveliest sense of life and the warmest, most authentic humour. A touching book; and so funny, so likeable There is humour as well as tragedy in this book, besides its faint note of hope for human nature; and it is delightfully written in the now familiar Southern tradition Her book is lifted...into the rare company of those that linger in the memory... No one ever forgets this book

We had to study this for English, and although that tends to suck the fun out of any book, it didn't for this. It's fantastic. Even though the main event of the book is at the end, it isn't slow moving... More

“More than lives up to the hype!!”

I first read this purely out of curiosity, a novel as renowned as this one surely can't disappoint, can it? Well I was more than thrilled with the outcome. Told from the innocent and strong-willed perspective of... More
