| Resumen |
THE UNFORGETABLE NOVEL OF A CHILDHOOD IN A SLEEPY SOUTHERN TOWN AND THE CRISIS OF CONSCIENCE THAT ROCKED IT. TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD BECAME BOTH AN INSTANT BESTSELLER AND A CRITICAL SUCCES WHEN IT WAS FIRST PUBLISHED IN 1960. IT WENT ON TO WIN THE PULITZER PRIZE IN 1961 AND WAS LATER MADE INTO AN ACADEMY AWARD-WINNING FILM, ALSOA CLASSIC.
COMPASSIONATE, DRAMATIC, AND DEEPLY MOVING, TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD TAKES READERS TO THE ROOTS OF HUMAN BEHAVIOR- TO INNOCENCE AND EXPERIENCE, KINDNESS AND CRUELTY, LOVE AND HATRED, HUMOR AND PATHOS. NOW WITH OVER 18 MILLION COPIES IN PRINT AND TRANSLATED INTO TEN LANGUAGES, THIS REGIONAL STORY BY A YOUNG ALABAMA WOMAN CLAIMS UNIVERSAL APPEAL. HARPER LEE ALWAYS CONSIDERED HER BOOK TO BE A SIMPLE LOVE STORY. TODAY IT IS REGARDED AS A MASTERPIECE OF AMERICAN LITERATURE. |
