Customer Review

In Harper Lee's novel "To Kill a Mockingbird," is about the racial segregation between blacks and whites in a South American town of the 30s. The story is told through the eyes of six-year old Scout Finch, whose father is Atticus Finch lawyer and asked the colored Tom Robinson to defend in court, because this is supposed to have raped a white woman. In parallel, the childish adventures of Scout and her brother Jem plays an important role: they have made it their goal to establish contact with their mysterious neighbor "Boo Radley", the only night for a scandal that should have taken place years ago leaves the house and has already been seen for years by any person.

Since the story is written from children's eyes, it is an interesting and very successful blend of childlike adventure and a critical social novel. From the perspective of childlike naive Scout history gaining charm and humor, but without trivializing the serious fate of Tom Robinson. Many details describe very accurately the situation in the South America of the 30s, where racial segregation, discrimination and poverty, both among whites and blacks, was ubiquitous.
