It is the story set in the 1960s maybe? Actually I'm not sure about the year. Set in Maycomb County... Scout(Jean Louis) Finch lives with her brother, Jem and Atticus in Maycomb county. In the holidays, a boy called Dill comes to visit the place and they befriend him. Dill grows interested in the mystery of Boo Radley, who stays locked up in he house since the incident where he ...what did he do again? Ah well...the kids always try to get a look at him. He does appear soon, at the end of the story,for a brief while.
The book also talks about racial integration as in that time. the blacks (negroes) were discriminated by the whites. A young man, ....whose name I can't recall...was accused of rape and as trialled. Actually, it was the girl's father that had beaten her up. But, in the end, the case wasn't won nor was it lost. The negro was sent to a prison before the next trail could commence.Sadly, he coulldn't take it anymore, tried to escape but dies in the attempt. By the way, Atticus was the negro's lawyer.
This book is real ...good? Telling us the story of two kids growing up amidst all that's happening in the world. Telling us to look beyond the surface of a person...
