Summary
To Kill a Mockingbird is a novel published by American female writer Harper Lee in 1960.
The novel tells about a young man named Tom Robinson who was falsely accused of rape only because he was a black man. Although the defense lawyer Atticus Finch had evidence that Tom was not a rapist, he could not prevent the jury from concluding that Tom was guilty. This crime led to Tom’s death at random.
Although the theme of the story involves serious issues such as racial inequality and rape, its style of writing is still warm and interesting. The novel is written in the first person. The narrator’s father, Atticus Finch, plays a moral role in the book and is also a model of honest lawyers.
In 1961, the book won the Pulitzer Prize of the year, was translated into more than 40 languages, sold more than 30 million copies worldwide, and was adapted into a film of the same name in the same year.
