Description
Set two decades after Harper Lee's Pulitzer Prize-winning masterpiece, To Kill a Mockingbird, Go Set a Watchman returns home to Maycomb, Alabama. Twenty-six-year-old Jean Louise Finch, known as Scout, has left her life in New York City to visit her aging father, Atticus. As she settles back into the small town of Maycomb, Jean Louise's homecoming is bittersweet, filled with disturbing truths about her family and community. Memories from her childhood flood back, forcing her to re-examine her values and assumptions. This painful yet necessary journey is guided by her own conscience, as she navigates a world in transition. Written in the mid-1950s, Go Set a Watchman offers a fuller understanding of Harper Lee's work, adding depth and context to an American classic.
