Set in the South in the depths of the Great Depression, Harper Lee's Pulitzer Prize-winning story contrasts the idyllic innocence of childhood with powerful themes of racial prejudice and injustice. When lawyer Atticus Finch defends a man falsely accused of a crime, the reverberations rumble through the entire town of Maycomb, exposing intolerance and quiet heroism alike.
