Description
Dr. Wayne Flynt's unique friendship with Harper Lee offers a rare glimpse into the life and mind of one of America's most beloved writers.
Their conversations, which spanned over a dozen years, covered a wide range of topics from Alabama history to American literature, family genealogy, and more. Flynt and his wife Dartie were frequent visitors to Lee's assisted living facility, where the stories began with an invitation to "Come in, sit down, and stay a while."
This part memoir, part biography, provides a unique window into Harper Lee's life and preoccupations, shaped from the hours spent visiting and sharing revelations with Flynt and his family.
