To Kill a Mockingbird is one of the most widely read novels in American Literature. Yet one-time author Harper Lee is a mysterious figure who leads a private life. Her life is as rich as her fiction and is revealed in this riveting story pieced together with hundreds of interviews. I really enjoyed this book.
When I first picked it up, I was thinking, "oh, a biography...great." But as I read more and more about Harper Lee and her life as an author, it made me want to keep reading, and it also inspired me to read To Kill a Mockingbird (which I had never heard of before). It was very well written and very good.
