Harper Lee.



This is the first time I have read to kill a mockingbird and I loved it! Harper lee only ever really published this book and she dose a clever thing where she tells the story from the perspective of children, who don't have many preconceptions of society and its views and are still asking questions about it. So they are almost unaware of the huge issues inequality of races and classes of that time, but what really stuck me was how innocent the whole story was. But there are quite a lot of story lies that are crisscrossing over each other which can make the book quite confusing at times however the main one that stood out to me was the trial of Tom Robinson and it is a interesting reflection of rasium in that time.

Sadly the topics in Lee's book I have realised since reading it , is that they are still very much relevant today. The race wars that are going on in america and the campain black lives matter.
