Lee Harper To Kill A Mockingbird
A lawyer's advice to his children as he defends the real mockingbird of Harper Lee's classic novel - a black man falsely charged with the rape of a white girl. Through the young eyes of Scout and Jem Finch, Harper Lee explores with exuberant humour the irrationality of adult attitudes to race and class in the Deep South of the 1930s. The conscience of a town steeped in prejudice, violence and hypocrisy is pricked by the stamina of one man's struggle for justice. But the weight of history will only tolerate so much. To Kill a Mockingbird is a coming-of-age story, an anti-racist novel, a historical drama of the Great Depression and a sublime example of the Southern writing tradition.

Lee Harper To Kill a Mockingbird
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 into an Academy Award-winning film, also a classic. Compassionate, dramatic, and deeply moving, To Kill a Mockingbird takes readers to the roots of human behavior-to innocence and experience, kindness and cruelty, love and hatred, humor and pathos. Now with over 18 million copies in print and translated into ten languages, this regional story by a young Alabama woman claims universal appeal. Harper Lee always considered her book to be a simple love story. Today it is regarded as a masterpiece of American literature.

Lee Harper To Kill a Mockingbird
Когда Харпер Ли было всего пять лет, в небольшом городке Скоттсборо, штат Алабама, проходили судебные разбирательства по делу о предполагаемых изнасилованиях двух белых женщин девятью молодыми чернокожими. Подозреваемых чуть было не линчевали еще до суда. Несмотря на медицинское заключение, согласно которому женщины не были изнасилованы, суд присяжных, состоявший только из белых, признал виновными и приговорил к смертной казни всех обвиняемых, за исключением самого младшего, тринадцатилетнего. На протяжении последующих шести лет в ходе апелляционного процесса большинство из этих обвинений сняли, и все обвиняемые, за исключением одного, были освобождены. Эта история произвела сильное впечатление на девочку, и в 1960 году в свет вышел роман "Убить пересмешника", мгновенно ставший бестселлером. В его основе - "Скоттсборской дело". В книге приводится полный неадаптированный текст романа, снабженными комментариями и словарем. Подготовка текста, комментарии и словарь: Е. Г. Тигонен
