Go set a watchman [large print] / Harper Lee.

Lee, Harper, (author.).

Summary:

This book is an historic literary event: the publication of a newly discovered novel, the earliest known work from Harper Lee, the beloved, bestselling author of the Pulitzer Prize-winning classic, "To Kill a Mockingbird." Originally written in the mid-1950s, "Go Set a Watchman" was the novel Harper Lee first submitted to her publishers before "To Kill a Mockingbird." Assumed to have been lost, the manuscript was discovered in late 2014. "Go Set a Watchman" features many of the characters from "To Kill a Mockingbird" some twenty years later. Returning home to Maycomb to visit her father, Jean Louise Finch -- Scout -- struggles with issues both personal and political, involving Atticus, society, and the small Alabama town that shaped her. Exploring how the characters from "To Kill a Mockingbird" are adjusting to the turbulent events transforming mid-1950s America, "Go Set a Watchman" casts a fascinating new light on Harper Lee's enduring classic. Moving, funny and compelling, it stands as a magnificent novel in its own right.
