Who wrote the book "To Kill a Mockingbird"?

Gregory Peck's best film.

My number one favourite book 😍

RushMama2112, That’s because it wasn’t a sequel. It was an early draft being promoted as a sequel as a scam.

ManCity, I don't think it is right to say that this is his best film. He is a wonderful actor, he played great characters in many movies, to be fair.🙂

The literary experts say that Harper Lee wrote the book, not her dear friend and celebrated author Truman Capote. Pity she did not write more. The book was very well received but the impact of the movie can not be overstated. Truly a hinge point in American culture

I've got a friend called Lee

(Typo: blanket ON a cold…)

I use this in my classroom and in addition to the example of Atticus, I point out the most courageous character is Tom Robinson. He was kind to a young woman who was living through cruel poverty and abuse (all kinds). He didn’t expect anything for his kindness and knew that every time he helped her, he was taking a risk…but he was kind anyway. Jem is also amazing for protecting his sister. Oh, and Mr. Arthur Radley (Boo) who cared for the kids (gifts, blanket of a cold and fiery night, and saving their LIVES)…yeah, even Mrs. Dubose has some heroic qualities. The book is amazing. Love the movie too. Horton Foote’s screenplay was stupendous!

It was a good question for me

SOS, It was finished out as a proper story. It just wasn't as emotional or evocative of a period in Scout's life. It didn't have the empathy or the fullness of the personalities in the original. Not the nostalgia that tugged at your heart.

ManCity, He was also great acting in the movie called Omen!! Very good scary movie!!

ManCity, bro man city is struggling rn 🤣

When I first read it, I was not expecting it to be funny. It is.

RushMama2112 & Mars V, I thought it was meant to be a prequel, as in the original saying: "Go set a watchman to kill a mockingbird" I haven't read it but if it's just a rough draft then I probably won't bother. Thanks for the heads up.

The character Dill is based on Truman Capote. Harper Lee and Truman Capote or childhood friends.

Recently read the "sequel, " Go Set A Watchman. I understand why Ms. Lee preferred it to not be published. Not that it's bad - Lee did write it after all - but it was superfluous. It didn't really add much to Scout's story.

Player #7719043, I think the latest update removed those extra clues.

one of the best books I have ever read!! There should be a law to read it!!
