For such an acclaimed classic novel, I've come to it late. I know the the reputation of the masterpiece by Harper Lee and the centrality of the character, Atticus Finch. What I hadn't realised was that it's written from the perspective of his young daughter, Jean Louise, aka 'Scout' and I think this...

Piękna pod każdym względem. Wzruszająca, dająca do myślenia oraz zastanowienia się nad życiem, a momentami wręcz zabawna i niewinna. Trudny temat opisany oczami dziecka oddaje ogromną autentyczność tej powieści. Bohaterowie ani na moment nie są papierowi czy płytcy - przywiązać się można od pierws...

“You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view... Until you climb inside of his skin and walk around in it.” I need to admit that reading this book gave me the impression of being robbed. Most Americans had the chance to read it through middle school and t...

„To Kill a Mockingbird“ von Harper Lee ist vermutlich eines der Bücher, die am häufigsten in anderen Büchern erwähnt und zitiert werden. Besonders in der Young Adult – Literatur stolperte ich immer wieder über diesen Titel. Es kam, wie es kommen musste: ich wurde neugierig. Ich wusste, dass es sich ...

I’m not sure what to say about this book that hasn’t been said 61,500 times before. Seriously, that’s how many reviews To Kill A Mockingbird has on Goodreads. This is going to be a short review because I literally have nothing to add to the conversation. Even if you’ve never read To Kill A Mocking...

Okay. Uh. Where to begin... Yikes? I swore I wouldn't read this, because I'm still pretty sure an ailing Harper Lee was manipulated into publishing it. But then it popped up right when I was looking for my next read and... well, here we are. If you think of this as an interesting first draft (wh...

So I ordered a copy.Little did I know how timely our discussion was. Harper Lee died a week ago, on February 19th, 2016.I won't do a bi...

Synopsis: The unforgettable 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 success when it was first published in 1960. It went on to win the Pulitzer Prize in 1961 and was later made ...
