Novel: To
kill a Mocking Bird
A simple
story on the racial prejudice during the 1930s, Harper Lee’s coming-of-age
tale, To Kill a Mocking Bird, is portrayed through the eyes of a young girl,
Jean Louise ‘’Scout” Finch. In the Deep South we experience the racism and the
discrimination against the African Americans. A simple plot, yet full of a
deeper meaning, it has much to teach us. Like how prejudice should not be
encouraged. Instead, every man should be given equal opportunities.
Targeted at
teenagers and adults, it definitely is an eye-opener as I compare it with the
racial harmony and equality that we take for granted now. I would definitely
recommend it to everyone around me to read it as I feel that it would be a
great eye-opener for them too.
