I have seen the movie several times, but I finally read this Pulitzer Prize winning classic!
This story recounts a bit of Scout Finch's life growing up in Maycomb, Alabama. The story is set around the year 1939. Scout tells of adventures she has with her brother and a friend Dill.
Then a crime happens and her father, a lawyer, agrees to defend the accused. But the accused is an African American man, and the author uses that to illustrate the racial attitudes and prejudices of the time.
