To Kill a Mockingbird

Harper Lee · 1960 CE · Novel · Modern / American · Contemporary

Scout Finch and her brother grow up in Depression-era Alabama with half their attention on the recluse next door. Their father, a lawyer, takes the defense of a black man accused of raping a white woman, and the town turns on the family. A Southern childhood and a doomed trial; conscience taught at the height of injustice.
