"This gorgeously rendered graphic-novel version provides a new
perspective for old fans but also acts as an immersive introduction for
youngsters as well as any adult who somehow missed out on the iconic
story set in Maycomb, Alabama."--USA Today
A beautifully crafted graphic novel adaptation of Harper Lee's
beloved, Pulitzer Prize-winning American classic, voted America's
best-loved novel in PBS's Great American Read.
"Shoot all the bluejays you want, if you can hit 'em, but remember it's
a sin to kill a mockingbird."
A haunting portrait of race and class, innocence and injustice,
hypocrisy and heroism, tradition and transformation in the Deep South of
the 1930s, Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird remains as important
today as it was upon its initial publication in 1960, during the
turbulent years of the Civil Rights movement.
Now, this most beloved and acclaimed novel is reborn for a new age as a
gorgeous graphic novel. Scout, Jem, Boo Radley, Atticus Finch, and the
small town of Maycomb, Alabama, are all captured in vivid and moving
illustrations by artist Fred Fordham.
Enduring in vision, Harper Lee's timeless novel illuminates the
complexities of human nature and the depths of the human heart with
humor, unwavering honesty, and a tender, nostalgic beauty. Lifetime
admirers and new readers alike will be touched by this special visual
edition that joins the ranks of the graphic novel adaptations of A
Wrinkle in Time and The Alchemist.
