Shoot all the bluejays you want, if you can hit em, but remember its a sin to kill a mockingbird
Experience the indelible world of Scout, Jem, Boo Radley, Atticus Finch, and the small town of Maycomb, Alabama, with this beautiful hardcover collector's edition of Harper Lee's beloved American classic.
A haunting portrait of race, innocence, injustice, and quiet heroism in the Jim Crowe Deep South of the 1930s, To Kill a Mockingbird remains as fresh and important today as it was upon its initial publication in 1960. Enduring in vision, this timeless novel illuminates the complexities of human nature and the depths of the human heart with humor, unwavering honesty, and a tender, nostalgic beauty. It is a poignant reminder that moral courage and love can flourish in the darkest of times.
A staple of classrooms for decades, To Kill a Mockingbird has been translated into more than forty languages, sold more than forty million copies worldwide, served as the basis for an enormously popular motion picture and acclaimed Broadway play, and was voted one of the best novels of the twentieth century by librarians nationwide. A gripping, heart-wrenching, and wholly remarkable tale of coming-of-age in a South defined by virulent prejudice, it views a world of great wonder and savage inequities through the eyes of a young girl, as her father---a principled lawyer---risks everything to defend a black man falsely accused of a terrible crime.
