Harper Lee’s Pulitzer prize-winning masterwork of honor and injustice in the deep south—and the heroism of one man in the face of blind and violent hatred, available now for the first time as an e-book. One of the best-loved stories of all time, To Kill a Mockingbird has been translated into more than forty languages, sold more than thirty million copies worldwide, served as the basis for an … enormously popular motion picture, and was voted one of the best novels of the twentieth century by librarians across the country. A gripping, heart-wrenching, and wholly remarkable tale of coming-of-age in a South poisoned by virulent prejudice, it views a world of great beauty and savage inequities through the eyes of a young girl, as her father-a crusading local lawyer-risks everything to defend a black man unjustly accused of a terrible crime.

Classic literature never disappoints
As a high school English teacher I have

The best book I have ever read!
I loved this book. Of course, anyone who has an interest in books, loves this book. It is required reading in a lot of schools. I have read it at least four times over years.
Sixty years after the release of To Kill a Mockingbird, it’s still relevant even though it’s fiction. I just wish I hadn’t waited this long to read it. It’s one of those books that leaves you wanting more after you’ve read it.
A classic! Very good book, especially in these times.
A must read!
